Kennedy Psychiatric Highlights the Importance of Accurate Evaluation for ADHD and Anxiety in Adults
Kennedy Psychiatric encourages adults with attention or anxiety symptoms to seek a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation to support accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment planning.
NEW YORK, NY – Kennedy Psychiatric is encouraging adults experiencing difficulty with focus, attention, or persistent worry to seek a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation, noting that symptoms of ADHD and anxiety disorders can overlap while requiring different treatment approaches.
Difficulty concentrating, restlessness, and trouble completing daily tasks may occur with both ADHD and anxiety. Because these conditions can appear similar, the practice recommends a thorough psychiatric assessment that includes a medical history, childhood symptoms, current concerns, and screening for other conditions that may affect attention and concentration.
Some adults are diagnosed with both ADHD and anxiety, making individualized treatment planning especially important. Kennedy Psychiatric evaluates each patient before recommending medication or psychotherapy and provides ongoing follow-up for patients receiving prescription treatment.
"Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of effective psychiatric care," said Dr. Nigel Kennedy, MBBS, PhD, board-certified psychiatrist and founder of Kennedy Psychiatric. "A comprehensive evaluation helps identify the underlying cause of symptoms so treatment decisions can be based on each patient's individual needs."
Kennedy Psychiatric provides evaluation and treatment for adults with ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, insomnia, PTSD, and executive burnout. Appointments are available in person at the Midtown Manhattan office and through telehealth.
