She takes time to understand your history, symptoms, and challenges — and provides a clear diagnosis with a personalized treatment plan.

We're a trusted mental health clinic serving patients across Maryland with in-person visits at our Laurel clinic and secure telehealth options for your convenience.

Real answers start with a real understanding

At our ADHD evaluation clinic in Laurel, we know that living with untreated ADHD can feel like your brain is working against you. Our approach is built on one truth: when you understand how your brain works, you can finally make it work for you. Here's how we help.

01

A Deep‑Dive ADHD Assessment

This isn't a quick screening — it's a comprehensive exploration of your life. We look at how your brain handles focus, organization, time management, and impulse control. Dr. Fosu digs into your childhood, school years, work history, and relationships to connect the dots. She also screens for conditions that often overlap with ADHD, like anxiety or depression, so nothing gets missed.

02

Clear Diagnosis — With Context

We don't just tell you "you have ADHD" and hand you a prescription. We walk you through the specific type — inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, or combined — and explain how it shows up in your life. We also discuss any co‑occurring conditions and help you understand what this diagnosis means for your future, not just your present.

03

A Treatment Plan That Fits Your Brain

There's no one-size-fits-all solution for ADHD. We build a plan around your unique brain — which might include medication (stimulants or non‑stimulants), therapy, executive function coaching, or a mix of all three. We also help you build daily routines and organizational systems that actually stick.

04

Ongoing Support — Not Just a Prescription

ADHD management is a marathon, not a sprint. We check in regularly — not just to adjust medication, but to help you fine‑tune your strategies, celebrate wins, and troubleshoot setbacks. We're here for the long run, whether in‑person at our Laurel clinic or via telehealth for your convenience.

Why patients trust us with their ADHD care

When you've spent years wondering why your brain works differently, you need more than a diagnosis — you need someone who truly gets it. Here's what makes Arthur Behavioral different.

01

ADHD Specialist — Not Just General Psychiatry

Dr. Fosu has advanced training and years of experience specifically in ADHD evaluation and management — not just general mental health. She understands the nuances of ADHD in adults, teens, and children, and stays current with the latest research. This isn't a side specialty — it's a core part of her practice.

02

No Rush — We Take Time to Get It Right

We don't diagnose ADHD in 15 minutes. Our comprehensive evaluation digs deep into your history, patterns, and struggles. We also screen for conditions that can look like ADHD — anxiety, depression, sleep disorders — so you get the right diagnosis, not a quick one. Getting it right matters more than getting it fast.

03

Medication Options — Stimulant & Non‑Stimulant

Not everyone responds to stimulants — and not everyone wants them. We offer both stimulant and non‑stimulant medication options, and we always start with the lowest effective dose. Your comfort and safety come first, and we adjust as needed based on your feedback.

04

Beyond Medication — Coaching & Real‑World Strategies

Medication is just one piece of the puzzle. We also help you build practical skills — time management, organization, focus techniques, and emotional regulation — so you can thrive at work, school, and in relationships. We don't just treat symptoms; we help you build a life that works with your brain, not against it.

How We Approach ADHD Evaluation & Treatment

ADHD affects everyone differently — and your treatment should reflect that. Here's how we work with you to understand your brain and build strategies that actually work for your life.

💊

Medication Management for ADHD

When medication is part of your ADHD treatment, we don't just hand you a prescription and send you on your way. Dr. Fosu carefully selects the right medication — whether it's a stimulant like Adderall or Vyvanse, or a non‑stimulant like Strattera or Intuniv — based on your specific symptoms and medical history.

We start with low doses and monitor closely. If side effects come up, we address them. If something isn't working, we adjust. This is an ongoing conversation, not a one-time decision. We're also here to help you understand what to expect and when to reach out.

🧠

Therapy, Coaching & Practical Strategies

For many people, therapy and coaching are vital parts of ADHD care. We help you understand how your brain works and give you real tools to manage focus, organization, and impulsivity. You'll learn practical strategies you can use when you're feeling overwhelmed, distracted, or stuck.

We also explore lifestyle changes that support your focus and well-being — sleep, movement, nutrition, and daily routines. The goal isn't just to manage symptoms, but to build a life that works with your brain, not against it.

Questions we hear every day about ADHD

You're not the first person to wonder about ADHD evaluation and treatment. Here are honest answers to the questions our patients ask most.

01

What are the signs of ADHD in adults?

Adult ADHD often looks different than in children. Common signs include difficulty staying focused, trouble organizing tasks, forgetfulness, procrastination, restlessness, impulsivity, difficulty following through on projects, and feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities. Many adults with ADHD also struggle with time management and maintaining relationships.

02

What does an ADHD evaluation involve?

A comprehensive ADHD evaluation includes a thorough clinical interview — we talk about your symptoms, childhood history, work or school performance, and how ADHD affects your daily life. We may also use rating scales and gather input from family members or partners when appropriate. The goal is to get a complete picture so we can make an accurate diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan.

03

Can adults be diagnosed with ADHD?

Absolutely. Many adults with ADHD were never diagnosed as children. Adult ADHD is common and often overlooked because symptoms can be mistaken for anxiety, depression, or just "being disorganized." A proper psychiatric evaluation can help distinguish ADHD from other conditions and get you the right treatment.

04

Is medication always part of ADHD treatment?

Not at all. For some people, therapy and coaching alone are enough. For others, medication is a helpful addition. We never push medication — we discuss it as an option and only recommend it if we think it could genuinely help. If you do decide to try it, we start with low doses and monitor closely. The decision is always yours.

05

Can I get an ADHD evaluation from home?

Yes. We offer secure telehealth ADHD evaluations for all our services — including initial assessments, medication management, and follow-up care. Whether you're in Laurel or anywhere in Maryland, you can access expert ADHD care from home. Same-week video appointments are often available.

06

How do I get started with an ADHD evaluation?

Getting started is simple. Call our office at (240) 360-7308 or book online. We'll schedule your initial psychiatric evaluation to understand your needs, discuss your history, and develop a personalized ADHD treatment plan. We're here to support you every step of the way — whether you're dealing with focus issues, impulsivity, or just feeling overwhelmed by daily tasks.
