Chester Borough and Chester Township offer a peaceful, community-centered lifestyle, with scenic surroundings, historic charm, and close proximity to professional hubs across Morris and Somerset counties.

Our board-certified psychiatrists and licensed therapists provide evidence-based treatment that helps adults improve productivity, strengthen emotional resilience, and regain confidence in their daily routines.
In-Person ADHD Evaluations for Adults

Recognizing ADHD in Adults
Many adults live with ADHD for years without realizing it is the root cause of their struggles. In Chester — where residents juggle demanding jobs, long commutes, parenting, and community involvement — ADHD symptoms can significantly affect day-to-day functioning.
Common signs of adult ADHD may include:
- Time Management Problems: Adults may underestimate how long tasks will take, miss deadlines, or find it difficult to balance work, home responsibilities, and personal commitments. These challenges can feel even heavier for commuters or professionals in fast-paced roles.
- Disorganization: Misplaced documents, forgotten bills, or unfinished household projects can create ongoing stress, affecting both productivity and personal relationships.
- Impulsive Behavior: Adults may interrupt conversations, overspend, or make quick decisions without weighing long-term consequences, leading to issues at work or home.
- Restlessness: Long meetings, extended commutes, or quiet downtime may feel uncomfortable, causing irritability and difficulty relaxing.
- Emotional Strain: Years of coping with ADHD without support may contribute to frustration, low self-esteem, or tension with spouses, children, or colleagues.

Understanding ADHD Causes and Risk Factors
Adults often wonder whether ADHD stems from stress or lifestyle. In reality, ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition influenced by several factors — not effort or discipline.
- Genetics: ADHD frequently runs in families. Many adults only recognize their own symptoms once a child is diagnosed.
- Developmental Factors: Premature birth, prenatal exposures, or early medical complications can contribute to risk, though these do not determine outcomes alone.
- Brain Functioning: Differences in brain pathways related to attention, planning, and impulse control explain why everyday tasks may feel harder for adults with ADHD.
ADHD is not a character flaw. With the right treatment, adults can develop clear strategies that lead to meaningful, lasting improvements.
