When adults begin ADHD treatment, the primary goal is usually clear: improve focus, executive functioning, emotional regulation, and quality of life.

But emerging research suggests there may be something more to the story.

While still preliminary, several recent studies are exploring whether treating ADHD in adulthood may also influence long-term brain health.

When most people hear ADHD, they picture a child who can’t sit still.

But the “H” in ADHD — hyperactive — doesn’t tell the whole story.

If we were being precise, we’d call it AD H/I D — because that category is really hyperactive/impulsive. And nearly half of those symptoms have nothing to do with running or climbing.

We had such a wonderful time at the Minnesota Educators for Gifted and Talented (MEGT) Conference!

Dr. Adams presented on ADHD in gifted students and Stealth Dyslexia, highlighting how bright students can also experience very real challenges that are often missed. Both talks focused on understanding the brain, recognizing hidden learning differences, and supporting students in ways that build skills and confidence.

We’re always grateful to collaborate with educators who are so committed to seeing the whole child and helping every learner thrive. 💙

If you’ve been navigating the world of ADHD for a while, you may remember when “ADD” and “ADHD” were considered two different conditions. Perhaps you’ve wondered why we now use “ADHD” for everything, or why your child’s evaluation report says they have “ADHD, predominantly inattentive presentation” even though they’re not hyperactive at all. This week, we’re diving into the history of how this diagnostic language evolved, what science revealed about symptom presentations, and why these changes matter.

One of the first questions we hear from people inquiring about a neuropsychological evaluation is whether using an in-network provider will be more affordable. While that’s a reasonable assumption, the reality is often more complicated.

At Minnesota Neuropsychology we believe it is important to provide a comprehensive evaluation for each client. Insurance companies set very specific requirements about which tests can be administered, which concerns qualify as “medically necessary,” and how much time can be spent on each portion of an evaluation. These restrictions can significantly limit the provider’s ability to be thorough and to address all of the questions clients are hoping to answer.

When we understand why a child struggles, we can stop blaming and start helping — with compassion, effective instruction, and confidence in their strengths.

If you’d like help understanding what this might mean for your child, or what next steps could look like, we’re always here to help.

ADHD is often thought of as a “childhood” or “classroom” condition — but it doesn’t end at the age of 18. For adults, ADHD shows up in everyday life, affecting relationships, careers, and personal well-being.

If you’ve ever felt like challenges in love or work are “all you,” you’re not alone — ADHD is a real, research-supported explanation for these patterns.
