ADHD Assessment Services

We maintain exceptional professional standards and ensure complete adherence to NICE guidelines across our ADHD assessment process. Our reputation as a dependable assessment provider has led to established partnerships with numerous NHS Trusts and ICBs, where we help manage assessment backlogs. Our diagnostic team features specialist psychiatrists and consultant clinical psychologists with extensive experience in ADHD evaluation - a level of expertise that distinguishes us from many other providers. Because of our comprehensive assessment methodology and stringent diagnostic criteria, our evaluations and reports are consistently accepted by the NHS and schools/colleges.

Having conducted thousands of ADHD diagnostic assessments, we understand the condition manifests uniquely in each individual. Our evaluation process is designed to identify various presentation styles and coping mechanisms – especially important when assessing females who often develop sophisticated strategies to manage their symptoms. If ADHD isn't diagnosed, our clinical team provides recommendations for appropriate support and can suggest alternative assessments if needed.

We typically request input from someone who has known you since your early years to provide supplementary information during the assessment process, helping us understand your developmental history. The Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM-5) specifies that ADHD symptoms must have been present in childhood for a diagnosis to be made. However, we recognise that some people may not have access to someone who can provide this historical context. While having this additional perspective is valuable, its absence won't prevent the ADHD assessment from proceeding. In such situations, we encourage you to share relevant historical documentation that might provide insights into your earlier experiences - such as academic records or previous assessments.

We aim to offer assessment appointments within four to six weeks of receiving all pre-assessment information. The timeline depends on how quickly we receive completed questionnaires from relevant parties (such as family members, schools, or other professionals who know you or your child well).
