Adult ADHD, Autism, & Trauma
Over 80% of neurodivergent adults* lack an appropriate diagnosis or aren’t receiving care. Have you been missed? Those most likely to go undiagnosed or unsupported include women and those AFAB, BIPOCs, high-achieving adults, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community (Prakash et al, 2021; Du et al, 2025; Stewart & Happe, 2025).
*estimate based upon recent research related to adult diagnosis rates and treatment data for ADHD and Autism including Hull et al, 2017; Warrier et al, 2020; Mallipeddi & VanDaalen, 2022.
