Living with ADHD as an adult can be exhausting. You may feel frustrated by constant disorganization, overwhelmed at work, or worried about strained relationships at home. Many adults in Short Hills juggle demanding careers, commuting to New York City, and family responsibilities, which makes untreated ADHD even more disruptive. You are not alone — effective help is available.
At ADHD Mood & Behavior Center, we provide in-person ADHD evaluations and treatment for adults in Short Hills, NJ. Our team of three board-certified psychiatrists and licensed therapists specializes in diagnosing adult ADHD and designing strategies to improve focus, organization, and overall quality of life.
For adults age 18 and older, ADHD evaluations are conducted in person at our New Jersey office. This approach follows current clinical and regulatory guidelines and allows for a thorough, accurate assessment.
Our team will explain what to expect during the evaluation process and help determine appropriate next steps based on your individual needs.

ADHD isn’t something that just goes away, and people don’t grow out of it. Many adults are only diagnosed later in life, after years of coping with unexplained struggles.
Common symptoms include:
Inattention: Losing focus during meetings, forgetting details, or missing deadlines at work
Disorganization: Misplacing important items, struggling with time management, or constantly feeling “behind”
Impulsivity: Interrupting conversations, spending impulsively, or making hasty decisions
Restlessness: Difficulty relaxing, feeling constantly on edge, or needing to stay busy
Emotional Regulation: Irritability, frustration, or low self-esteem from years of unmanaged symptoms
For professionals and parents in Short Hills, these symptoms can interfere with career success, family life, and personal well-being. Getting a proper evaluation is the first step toward lasting improvement.
Many adults ask: Why me? Did I do something wrong? The truth is, ADHD is not caused by laziness or lack of discipline. It is a neurodevelopmental condition with multiple contributing factors.
Genetics: ADHD is strongly hereditary; if your child or sibling has ADHD, you may as well
Environmental Factors: Prenatal risks or exposure to toxins may contribute to its development
Brain Differences: Adults with ADHD show differences in brain networks related to focus and impulse control
Myth buster: People with undiagnosed ADHD may blame themselves for performing poorly, but it’s not their fault. ADHD is a legitimate medical condition recognized by the American Psychiatric Association.
