What's included in your ADHD assessment?
Psychological Interview

Standardised rating scales are completed as part of this session to ensure a thorough and evidence-based evaluation in line with NICE guidelines.
Psychiatric Assessment
Following the psychological interview, you will meet with Consultant Psychiatrist for a focused psychiatric assessment. Your psychiatrist will review the clinical findings, discuss your diagnosis with you directly, rule out any co-occurring conditions, and outline a personalised treatment plan. If medication is clinically appropriate, your psychiatrist will guide you through the available options and next steps.
Diagnosis & Report
Following your assessments, your psychologist and psychiatrist will jointly prepare a comprehensive diagnostic report detailing their clinical findings, formal diagnosis, and a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs.
