Child/Young Person ADHD Assessments
What is ADHD?
ADHD is a Neurodevelopmental difference related to attention, activity levels and impulsivity. It affects life at home and at school and impacts learning, organisation, relationships and mental health and emotional wellbeing.
​
The three types of ADHD are:
​
1. Predominantly Inattentive
2. Predominantly Hyperactive/Impulsive
3. Combined Type
​
​
​So many people with ADHD have strengths such as energy, curiosity, creativity and the ability to think in innovative ways, and we work together to find ways to harness those amazing qualities.
​
​​ADHD can often exist alongside other Neurodevelopmental or Mental Health differences, which is why a careful and comprehensive assessment is so important
ADHD Assessment Process
​​​We provide in-depth, face-to-face Multi-Disciplinary assessments that allow us to explore a person's history, current experiences and overlapping needs in depth.​
​
Understanding the specific needs of each individual is crucial in developing personalised strategies, supports and skills, as well as considering whether medication might be appropriate.
Following our assessments we link directly with our prescribing partners for medication where needed.​​​
