ADHD Care in New York City
Comprehensive Evaluation, Diagnosis, and Ongoing Care for Adults Across NY
Adult ADHD care in New York shouldn't mean a six-month waitlist at a hospital-affiliated practice or a 15-minute appointment at an insurance-driven clinic.
Neurokin offers private-pay ADHD evaluation and ongoing care for adults across New York — designed for high-achieving professionals, late-identified adults, and anyone tired of feeling unheard in traditional healthcare settings.
Our approach prioritizes understanding the whole person, not checking symptoms off a list. We take time to understand patterns over years, context, and what daily life actually feels like — including the specific demands of life and work in New York.
ADHD Care in New York, Designed for Adults Who Want More
Neurokin works with adults throughout New York who are looking for more than a rushed appointment or a prescription without context. You might be a good fit if you're:
A New York professional in burnout. Who's been holding it together through high-pressure work but is starting to feel the cracks.
An adult exploring ADHD for the first time. After years of wondering why certain things feel harder than they should — even though you're outwardly successful.
Someone dismissed or misdiagnosed. Told you can't have ADHD because you finished college, run a business, or hold down a demanding career.
A patient seeking private, discreet care. Without insurance involvement, HR records, or shared system documentation.
A neurodivergent adult. Tired of providers who don't take adult ADHD seriously or who treat it as a niche concern.
We also work with high-masking adults, women and AFAB individuals, LGBTQ+ patients, and BIPOC adults who have historically been under-diagnosed in traditional medical settings.
Many of our New York patients come to us after feeling unheard at academic centers, shuffled through psychiatric mills, or stuck on hospital waitlists. If traditional New York healthcare has felt rushed or invalidating — this is different.
A Different Kind of ADHD Evaluation in NY
ADHD evaluation at Neurokin is a collaborative, patient-centered process designed to understand how your brain works in real life — at work, at home, in relationships, and in the specific demands of New York life.
We don't rely on checklists alone. We take time to understand patterns, context, strengths, and challenges. Our goal is to help you make sense of your experience — not just to assign a label.
Assessment tools support clinical judgment and your lived experience. They don't replace them. A test score is one data point. Your story is the full picture.
Our New York ADHD evaluations may include:
In-depth clinical interviews and developmental history review
Neurodiversity-affirming assessment tools
ADHD testing with QbCheck (FDA-cleared objective measure)
Cognitive and executive function assessment with Creyos when appropriate
Review of coping strategies, strengths, and adaptive skills you've already built
Contextual evaluation of how ADHD affects your work, relationships, and daily functioning

Because Neurokin operates as a private-pay practice, we offer longer appointments, more thoughtful follow-up, and consistent care over time. Your care is shaped by clinical need — not reimbursement rates or insurance prior-auth.

Your Questions About ADHD Care in New York City, Answered
How do I get an ADHD evaluation in New York City?
The first step is to schedule a consultation with Neurokin. During your initial appointment, we conduct a comprehensive clinical interview, review your history, and determine if objective testing (Qb Check or Creyos) is appropriate. The full evaluation typically takes place over one to two appointments and includes clinical assessment, objective testing when indicated, and a detailed diagnostic summary with next steps.
Do you offer in-person ADHD testing in NYC?
Yes. We offer in-person ADHD evaluation in Manhattan for patients who prefer face-to-face appointments. We also offer telehealth options for patients who prefer remote appointments or have scheduling constraints. The evaluation process, including objective testing, can be completed through either format.
Can you prescribe ADHD medication in New York?
Yes. Karina is licensed and DEA-credentialed in New York State. When clinically appropriate, we offer both stimulant and non-stimulant medication options as part of ongoing ADHD care. Prescribing decisions are thoughtful, conservative, and individualized.
What makes Neurokin different from other ADHD providers in NYC?
Neurokin combines medical expertise with a neurodiversity-affirming approach. We prioritize depth over volume, respect your lived experience, use evidence-based assessment tools, and provide continuity of care beyond diagnosis. Our private-pay model allows us to offer longer appointments, thoughtful follow-up, and genuine partnership in your care. We are not a coaching practice. We are a medical practice with the authority to diagnose and prescribe.
I work in NYC but live in another state. Can I still be a patient?
Yes. If you work in New York City, we can provide ADHD evaluation and treatment. For prescribing availability in your home state, we will review your location and determine what is possible. Many of our patients split time between states.
Why is it hard to find ADHD care in New York City?
NYC has many therapists and coaches but surprisingly few clinicians with medical training, diagnostic authority, and prescribing ability. Additionally, insurance-based providers often have long wait times and limited appointment availability. Neurokin was created to fill this gap: legitimate medical ADHD care with the depth and discretion that NYC professionals need.
What is the cost of ADHD evaluation and treatment in NYC?
Neurokin operates on a private-pay model. Costs vary based on the complexity of your evaluation and the frequency of follow-up care. For detailed pricing, contact us.
How long does the ADHD evaluation process take?
The initial evaluation typically takes one to two appointments, depending on the complexity of your presentation and whether objective testing is indicated. After diagnosis, ongoing treatment appointments are typically scheduled monthly or as needed. We prioritize continuity and long-term care.
What happens after my ADHD evaluation?
After your evaluation, we review findings with you in plain language and explain what they mean for your life. From there, you can decide what support aligns with your needs: ongoing care at Neurokin (including medication management), referrals to other providers, accommodations guidance, or simply having clarity and validation for your experience.
Do you work with therapists and coaches?
Yes. Many of our NYC patients work with therapists, coaches, or other support providers. We are happy to coordinate with your existing care team and provide documentation that supports their work with you. A formal ADHD diagnosis can unlock accommodations, clarify treatment direction, and validate what you have known about yourself for years.
