If you believe you may have ADHD, we also offer a free ADHD test for adults which only takes 3 minutes. If you score high on the test, scientific research indicates there is a significant likelihood you have ADHD. While a high score isn’t the same as a diagnosis, it does mean seeing a specialist for an ADHD assessment could be a good next step.

The diagnosis of ADHD needs to be made by a specialist with expertise in carrying out a comprehensive ADHD assessment, generally a psychiatrist or a psychologist. An ADHD assessment generally takes two hours. We will send you some forms to complete before your consultation, and if appropriate, you will receive your diagnosis and if you wish, a personalised treatment plan at the end of the appointment.

We offer private ADHD assessments with our trained specialists both face-to-face at our clinic in London or via online video assessments.

If you have been diagnosed with ADHD, we offer a range of evidence-based treatment options for ADHD, including psychoeducation, talking therapy, medication (optional), nutrition and lifestyle changes so that you can choose what approach suits you best. When developing your treatment plan, we’ll also consider important additional factors such as your school or work environment, personality, relationships and what’s meaningful in your life. Additionally, we may take into consideration the type of ADHD you have been diagnosed with.

After the ADHD assessment, if you want to start treatment using medication, you generally need one or two follow-up sessions to review your medication. These are usually 20-40 minutes long. We can then usually issue prescriptions without a session (at the discretion of your psychiatrist).
