What is an ADHD Assessment and Who is it For?

An ADHD assessment is a structured clinical process designed to evaluate symptoms like inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.

The goal is to understand how these traits affect day-to-day life and functioning.

Our assessments are suitable for adults, teenagers, and children who may be experiencing difficulties with focus, organisation, emotional regulation, or behaviour.

Each assessment is conducted online by trained clinicians using standardised diagnostic tools such as DIVA-5, ACE, and ASRS, in line with NICE and DSM-5 guidelines.

We tailor each session to the individual’s age, background, and needs, ensuring a supportive and comprehensive experience throughout the process.

Signs and Symptoms That May Indicate ADHD

ADHD symptoms can vary, but common signs include:

Poor focus or time management
Forgetfulness or losing track of items
Impulsive behaviour or trouble following instructions
Restlessness or hyperactivity
Difficulty managing emotions or moods

These symptoms may present differently in children, teenagers, and adults, and can often be misinterpreted as anxiety, stress, or disorganisation. Our online assessments thoroughly explore these symptoms to help you gain clarity.
