ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental condition which causes difficulties with concentration (inattention), hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These characteristics typically create challenges for home, school and work life, including trouble maintaining focus on tasks to completion, difficulty in undertaking any activities quietly and calmly, and acting without first considering the consequences.

We offer private ADHD assessments for individuals aged six and over (as many neurotypical children under six are also restless, impulsive and inattentive). The process begins with a series of pre-assessment questionnaires, followed by an online interview. The resulting diagnostic report will summarise both elements, and outline recommendations for aftercare support.

If you feel you might want access to ADHD medication after diagnosis, it’s best to speak to your GP before undertaking a diagnostic assessment with us, as some will prescribe based on a private ADHD diagnosis, while others will not. Our sister company RTN Medical offers an alternative, private pathway for ADHD medication assessment, if preferred.

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition affecting social interaction and communication. Autistic people may display differences in tone of voice, facial expressions, gestures and eye contact, while challenges can include recognising emotions in oneself and others, feeling overwhelmed in social situations, gauging personal space, and taking appropriate turns in conversations. In addition, autism is characterised by restricted and repetitive behaviours. 

We offer private autism assessments for adults and children (6+). Firstly, we send out a series of pre-assessment questionnaires, followed by an online interview and an online ADOS-informed observational assessment. A full diagnostic report is supplied, complete with aftercare recommendations, and a post-diagnostic online session is carried out after all child ASD assessments.

If you suspect that both ADHD and autism might be a possibility, a combined ADHD/ASD assessment is important, to ensure that a full and accurate picture of the individual’s neurodivergence is understood. There are numerous overlaps, nuances and interconnections between these two neurodivergent conditions, and it can be the case that characteristics of one may mask the other.

Additionally, there are cost and time benefits for undergoing a combined assessment for autism and ADHD, rather than being assessed for one and then the other. Our combined assessment represents a significant saving compared to the cost of two separate diagnostic assessments.

Dyslexia is a learning difficulty that affects reading and writing skills; people with dyslexia often struggle to recognise letters and words, making reading slow and challenging. It's not linked to intelligence, but it can still impact school and professional performance. With the right support and strategies, reading abilities and confidence can be improved.
