GET SUPPORT FROM EXPERTS IN ADHD

Many clinicians don’t understand ADHD — which is why fewer than half of adults
with ADHD ever receive a diagnosis.
 


Frida’s clinicians are experts in ADHD and are here to provide judgement-free
care that helps you improve your life while staying true to yourself.

FRIDA IS AN ALL-NEW APPROACH TO ADHD CARE.
HERE’S WHAT OUR PATIENTS HAVE TO SAY:

70,000+ consults completed. View all reviews.

After years of struggling with symptoms I didn’t fully understand, the wonderful
health care practitioners at Frida have not only given me affirming answers but
have also developed an effective and patient-led treatment plan that has me
seeing positive results in only a matter of weeks. I have felt supported every
step of the way, and would fully recommend this clinic to anyone who is
struggling with ADHD symptoms.

Emma Marie

The team at Frida have been so fantastic on my ADHD journey so far. From
listening to my struggles and concerns during my initial diagnosis, to making
sure I get the treatment that works for me, I’m so glad I found them. If you
want a friendly, helpful and compassionate group of people to help you on your
journey then I highly recommend Frida!

Alexa Borden

I needed help getting back on my medication. A friend recommended I try Frida
for medication management. I was able to easily navigate their website and
complete the required questions and registration process. I highly recommend
Frida for anyone who is seeking an initial ADHD diagnosis, without the huge
price tag, or who, like me, is in need of medication management. Truly an
amazing service.

Julianne Wesh

Having been diagnosed with ADD as a child and working with the Frida team to re
assess my condition and getting on the right prescription to help me with my
condition has been an absolute life changer. Their process is discrete and
professional, allowing for quick and easy delivery. Couldn't have asked for a
better experience.

Adil Mawji

This is a fantastic resource that makes mental health far more accessible to
all. They are both thorough and compassionate. What an awesome platform!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What should I expect after Frida’s free self-assessment?

Upon completing your self-assessment, you will be given an answer on whether you
may have ADHD or not. If positive, you will be prompted to create your free
Frida account.

After you’ve created your account, you will be asked to complete the following
within the Frida Care Portal:

 1. Answer a screening questionnaire to make sure Frida is a fit. 

 2. Book an appointment to confirm your diagnosis.

 3. Prior to your appointment, complete a series of additional screening
    questionnaires.

On the day of your appointment:

 * Your clinician will call you at your scheduled appointment time; it may show
   up as a blocked number. 

 * Find a safe, quiet, private space.

 * You cannot be driving during the appointment.

 * The appointment will be scheduled for 75 min. If you need more time with the
   clinician, a second (shorter) appointment will be scheduled.

Frida’s robust processes are an investment in your health. By submitting your
medical history in advance, your clinician can come prepared to clarify some
items and further discuss your care with Frida’s medical team. This is how an
accurate diagnosis is made. Some persons will not be appropriate for care
through Frida, but we will do our best to guide you towards a provider or
service that can.

How do I know if I have ADHD?

There are many different symptoms associated with ADHD. We recommend starting
with our one minute assessment. It is a clinically validated tool called the
ASRS that is used to help diagnose ADHD in adults.

The ASRS is extremely effective at accurately telling you if you do not have
ADHD. And it is pretty effective at telling you if you do have ADHD, although
less so.

If your assessment results say your symptoms are consistent with ADHD, we
recommend booking an appointment with a Frida clinician for a full-length
interview to better assess your possible ADHD diagnosis.

You can start the assessment here.

How does Frida work?

Frida provides diagnosis, treatment and ongoing care for adults with ADHD.

There are six main steps with Frida:

 1. Complete our online assessment to see if you are a good fit for Frida, and
    if we can support your specific needs.

 2. If we can support your specific needs, you will be able to schedule a
    judgement-free, full length evaluation with a clinician. It will be
    conducted by phone.

 3. During the first visit, your clinician will get to know you and work with
    you to determine which treatment, if any, is appropriate. Your treatment
    could include medication, therapy or both. Frida does not provide therapy
    (yet!) but can point you towards other solutions that may work for you.

 4. If you are prescribed medication, it is usually delivered to your home
    within two business days.

 5. Typically, you will see your clinician for short visits every 2 to 4 weeks
    at the start to work on tailoring your treatment plan to your specific
    needs.

 6. Once your treatment plan is optimized, you will check in with your care team
    every three months by phone or chat. The choice is typically yours, although
    sometimes we will need to speak with you. And you can always message your
    care team! Responses are typically received within 2 business days.

I already have ADHD. Is Frida for me?

Yes! If you’d like the additional care Frida provides, we welcome you. We still
require all patients to go through our diagnostic process to make sure we can
provide you with the highest quality of care.

Complete our free 2-min self-assessment and create an account to see if Frida is
right for you.

Who is Frida for?

Frida is for anyone over the age of 18 who believes they have ADHD, or has ADHD.
We tend to focus on women* because ADHD is more under-diagnosed in women than in
men. Boys are 3x more likely to be diagnosed as girls, and research shows that
75% of women with attention problems are undiagnosed (source: CADDAC).

All that being said, we welcome everyone to Frida, regardless of the gender and
sex they were assigned at birth.

*women in all their diversity: cis-women, trans and non-binary individuals.

Does Frida prescribe medications?

Frida prescribes all medications recommended in the Canadian ADHD practice
guidelines. If medication is part of your treatment plan, there is no one size
fits all - your clinician will recommend medication(s) based on a variety of
factors.

If you have anxiety and/or depression (which are common in people with ADHD),
your clinician will create a holistic treatment plan, and will also prescribe
medication for these conditions.

How much does Frida cost?

Frida provides two complementary services — diagnostic assessments and
continuous care — that have separate costs.

A diagnostic assessment with a Frida clinician costs a one-time fee of $599. If
you're diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety, or depression, you can continue to meet
with your Frida clinician at a cost of $79 per appointment.

Frida is covered by private insurers that have an eligible health spending
account. If you need financial support to pay for your diagnostic assessment
fee, contact us and we'll help.

Does Frida accept private insurance?

You will be able to claim Frida's diagnosis & treatment costs if your private
insurance plan offers a health spending account.

However, the cost is not covered by private insurance plans that do not have a
specific health spending account.

Does Frida provide therapy?

Frida is currently developing behavioral management resources, including
self-directed and group therapy programs organized by Frida clinicians.

These non-medication treatment programs will be announced shortly

Access to these programs will be free with all Frida subscriptions.

Does Frida provide services for other mental health conditions?

At this point in time, Frida is focused on adults with ADHD. However, if you
have anxiety and/or depression (which are common in people with ADHD), your
Frida clinician will treat these conditions as well.
