Premium In Person ADHD assessment services for children and adolescents
Our comprehensive private in-person assessments for ADHD in children and adolescents are done from our own clinic in Cheshire.
Our child assessments are performed by one of our specialist CAMHS Psychiatrists. After your pre-assessment appointments and consultations, your assessment with our CAMHS psychiatrist is usually around 90 minutes and we look to achieve that you, your child and your family have a full and comprehensive understanding of the condition should a diagnosis be achieved.
We seek to provide a service that surpasses anything else that we believe is available today, providing individuals and families access to the best people and the best tools that allow us to evidence progression, together with treatment plans, medication delivery, and the support provided by our highly qualified and experienced team of multidisciplinary clinicians, all of whom specialise in conducting private ADHD assessments.
Unfortunately, too many children and young people are struggling to access ADHD assessment services. This needs to change, and we want to be a big part of that change.
We fully believe that we provide a service that surpasses anything else available today, giving individuals and families access to the best people, tools, treatments, medications, and support.
Benefits of in person
ADHD assessments
In some children (and perhaps in older children), an online assessment may be more familiar and relaxing for them, in so much as the world of screens and digital interaction is where they feel more comfortable. Some children and families prefer to be in the environment of their own home and space, and also the convenience that comes with this.
Our assessment process and robustness does not differ between in-person and online assessments.
Our team is a dedicated group of specialist psychiatrists and practitioners with a shared passion for helping individuals who suspect they may have a neurodevelopmental condition. We are committed to providing robust assessments and evidence based interventions that meet the needs of each individual.
Our process is designed to support you and your child through assessment, and treatment if appropriate. We are committed to placing you and your child at the heart of your health journey and will develop a personal support package which feels right for you and your child.
Or, have your child's
assessment online.
Our online ADHD assessment service is no different to our in person assessment, we have simply made it more accessible and convenient. Your child can be themselves in their natural environment, undertaking the assessment at a time that suits them.
What does our in-person assessment service entail?
We take an extremely comprehensive and personalised approach to all our ADHD assessments.
By adopting a fully collaborative approach, it helps in supporting an in-depth and objective understanding of how your child's ADHD symptoms may have impacted them throughout their life and how treatments and pathways can help them in the future.
