We built Cognito because Canadians deserve better than 2-year wait lists and 15-minute assessments. Here's what makes us different.
Our assessments follow the Canadian ADHD Practice Guidelines from CADDRA, the national standard for ADHD care.
Every nurse practitioner completes specialized ADHD training, supervised practice, and ongoing case rounds with psychiatrists.
Every step happens from your home, on your schedule. No driving to offices, no waiting rooms, no missed work.
Our clinicians work with you to make decisions about your care. Your preferences shape your treatment plan.
Your care team takes the time to understand your full picture, not just tick boxes on a symptom checklist.
We don't disappear after diagnosis. If you want ongoing medication management or CBT, we're here for that too.

I honestly tell everyone I know who has mentioned their struggle with ADHD. Cognito has changed my life.
Cognito is a cost-effective way to not only get a diagnosis for ADHD, but a comprehensive care program at an affordable price. The CBT providers and courses are specialized and tailored to those of us who are neurodivergent.
After my first appointment with Cognito, I already felt like I was getting somewhere. I have an entire team helping me with medication, nutrition and CBT. I know more about ADHD and how to cope day to day than ever.
I am so grateful to have found Cognito. I was able to get the help I needed and continue to see a care coach who helps me work with my ADHD instead of fighting it.
In my 73 years of life, it is only since working with Cognito that I am finally accepting of who I am.
Cognito provides broad-based ADHD treatment covering many areas of management. My team has helped me make better improvements than when I felt alone trying to get help from multiple different professionals.
