What to Expect from Your ADHD Assessment
Our assessment process is clear and structured, with three key stages:
-
Free Screening Tool: Adults receive the ASRS, children receive SNAP-IV and a history questionnaire
-
Full Diagnostic Interview: Assessments are booked for 2 hours but usually last between 1 and 1.5 hours. We allow extra time to make sure your voice is heard. This structured session with a clinician uses tools like DIVA-5 or ACE+
-
Written Diagnostic Report: Delivered within 3 weeks, detailing outcomes and recommendations
The process includes a review of developmental history, daily life impact, and third-party input from parents or teachers when relevant. You can choose between in-person assessments in Kent or convenient remote sessions nationwide.
What’s Included in the Diagnostic Report?
Each diagnostic report includes:
-
Clinical outcome: Whether ADHD criteria are met or not
-
Tools used and clinical reasoning behind conclusions
-
Summary of symptoms, history, and real-life impact
-
Tailored advice for school, workplace, or personal support
Reports are written in plain language and are accepted by GPs, schools, and employers. A separate follow-up session with an occupational therapist is available if you wish to discuss the report in detail or explore your next steps. Reports are usually delivered within three weeks.
