What we treat

Three things, done well.

The conditions we see most in college-age patients — with care that meets you where you are in the semester.

Specialty

Adult ADHD evaluation & treatment

A real diagnostic evaluation — not a five-minute checklist. Validated rating scales (ASRS, WURS), developmental history, screening for conditions that look like ADHD, and a treatment plan with clear options: stimulants, non-stimulants, behavioral strategies, or a combination.

  • Comprehensive diagnostic interview
  • Stimulant & non-stimulant medication options
  • Documentation for disability services / DRC
  • Coordination with primary care

Most common

Anxiety

Generalized anxiety, panic, social anxiety, test anxiety, and health anxiety — evidence-based treatment that emphasizes sustainable strategies (SSRIs and CBT skills) over long-term benzodiazepine use. We'll be honest about the trade-offs of every option.

  • Generalized & social anxiety
  • Panic disorder
  • Performance & test anxiety
  • Measurement-based with GAD-7

Most common

Depression

Major depression, persistent low mood, seasonal affective patterns, and the kind of "I'm not okay but I can still function" mood that often goes unaddressed in college. Measurement-based care (PHQ-9), unhurried follow-ups, and coordination with your therapist if you have one.

  • Major & persistent depression
  • Seasonal patterns (Pacific NW winters)
  • Antidepressant management
  • Therapy referrals when helpful

Adult ADHD · the most common reason students reach out

If college is the first place ADHD is catching up with you, you're not alone.

A lot of bright students compensate well through high school — structured days, parents nearby, smaller course loads — and then hit a wall in college when the structure disappears. The reading piles up, deadlines slide, the GPA quietly drifts down, and you're left wondering whether something's actually going on.

That's a real clinical pattern. And it deserves a real evaluation — not a 15-minute checkbox visit, and not a generic stimulant prescription from a campus walk-in. We take the time to figure out whether ADHD is actually what's happening, what else might look like ADHD (anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, learning differences), and what treatment makes sense for you.

What an ADHD evaluation includes

  1. 01
    Comprehensive interview Symptom history, developmental history, school history, family history. The questions that an honest diagnosis actually requires.
  2. 02
    Validated rating scales ASRS, WURS, and others as appropriate — completed in the portal before your visit.
  3. 03
    Differential screening Screening for the conditions that mimic ADHD: anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, substance use, thyroid disease.
  4. 04
    Treatment plan, in plain language Stimulants, non-stimulants, behavioral strategies, or some combination — with honest pros and cons for each.
  5. 05
    Documentation, if you want it Letters of support for your university's accessibility / disability resources office.

Pricing

A flat student rate, no surprises.

If you have in-network insurance, we'll bill that instead and the student rate doesn't apply — you'll typically pay only your specialist copay. If you don't have in-network coverage (or you have a high-deductible plan and prefer to self-pay), the flat student rate is below.

FAQ for students

The questions we get asked most.

Can I get an ADHD evaluation as a college student?

Yes — this is one of the most common reasons students reach out. We do comprehensive evaluations with validated rating scales, developmental history, and screening for conditions that look like ADHD. The intake is 60 minutes (not 15), and you'll leave with a real treatment plan if a diagnosis is appropriate.

Do you accept my student health insurance?

Often, yes. Student health plans through Aetna, Cigna, Optum/UnitedHealthcare, Regence, Providence, and PacificSource are commonly in-network. We verify your specific plan before your first visit. If your plan is out-of-network or doesn't cover psychiatry, the flat student rate applies instead.

My parents' insurance won't cover this — can I still pay the student rate?

Yes. The student rate is for any currently enrolled OR/WA college student who doesn't have in-network insurance — whether that's because you're uninsured, on an out-of-state parent plan that doesn't have a network here, or simply prefer to keep mental health care off your parents' EOBs.

Can ADHD medication be prescribed by telehealth?

Yes, when clinically appropriate. Lavena is licensed and DEA-registered in both Oregon and Washington. Stimulant and non-stimulant medications can be prescribed by telehealth in line with current federal and state guidelines. Some medications may require an annual in-person visit; we'll discuss this with you up front.

What about summer break / studying abroad?

If you go home to Oregon or Washington for the summer, care continues as usual. If you travel temporarily out of state, we typically pause prescribing during that period and resume when you're back. If you study abroad or move to another state long-term, we'll help you find a clinician there.

Will you write a letter for my university's disability office (DRC, DSO, AccessAbility)?

Yes, once a diagnosis is established. We're familiar with documentation requirements at most OR and WA institutions and can provide letters of support for academic accommodations — extended testing time, reduced-distraction testing environments, note-taking support, etc.

Is this confidential? Will it affect my school record?

Your psychiatric care is confidential and protected by HIPAA. We don't share anything with your university, your parents, or anyone else without your written consent — the only exceptions are the standard ones (imminent risk of harm to self or others, mandated reporting). Diagnoses don't appear on transcripts or academic records.

What if I'm in crisis?

We're an outpatient practice and aren't equipped for crisis care. If you're in crisis, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), call 911, go to your nearest emergency room, or contact your campus counseling center for after-hours crisis support.
