ADHD Testing and Therapy in Santa Monica

Why Santa Monica families choose Lifespan for ADHD testing and therapy

Lifespan: Center for Family Psychological Services is the Mental Health Westlake Village practice trusted by Santa Monica families for evidence-based, insurance-friendly psychological care. Santa Monica families come to Lifespan for psychological testing, anxiety and depression treatment, and child and teen evaluations with telehealth options for busy schedules.

Our clinical team includes our licensed clinicians working together across ADHD testing and therapy, psychological testing, family therapy, and academic accommodation evaluations. Because we are a multi-clinician practice, we can match each Santa Monica client with the psychologist whose specialty, age range, and approach best fits the presenting concern, often within days of the first call.

What ADHD testing and therapy looks like at Lifespan

• Intake call. A 15-minute conversation to understand your needs and confirm we are the right fit.
• First session. A clinical interview to map your history, current symptoms, and goals.
• Ongoing care. Evidence-based protocols tailored to you, with regular progress check-ins.
• Coordination. When appropriate, your therapist coordinates with your physician, psychiatrist, or school.
