Today was the big day. I got tested for ADD. I was given the Woodcock Johnson Cognitive Test 3rd Edition along with a bunch of memory recall tasks and the Personality Assessment Inventory by Leslie C. Morey. All of this took 3 hours. When I was done he said he didn't get to everything he wanted and he wanted to setup another time to finish. I declined. I had had enough of his approach to ADD assessment. The experience was impersonal and insulting.

Now, I am looking for another therapist to help me out. I don't know anything about the therapists in my area; none of them have websites where I can find out techniques they use and areas they speciallize in. The secretaries who answer the phones at the various places I call aren't able to help me out either. And then there's my insurance. It switches in January. So the ideal therapist for me would be one covered by both insurance companies, has years of experience in the field of psychology, speciallizes in ADHD and anxiety, and is located in my city.
