Adult ADHD Assessment Pathways
If you suspect you may have ADHD symptoms and would like to explore your options for an ADHD assessment, please download the Free Adult Self-report tool.
You can take this to your GP if you are looking for an NHS assessment. If you meet the criteria, you can ask your GP to refer you to your Adult ADHD assessment Service.
However, the NHS waiting times can be pretty long in some areas of the UK.
If you would like to discuss your options, book a diagnosis discovery call.
Right To Choose Assessments
If you cannot access the NHS service within 18 weeks, use "Right to Choose."
This NHS policy in England allows patients more control over where they receive treatment, including ADHD assessments.
The NHS covers the cost, which can significantly reduce waiting times for an ADHD diagnosis.

Excellent Course
"I have really valued and appreciated Bernadette’s insight and clear explanations throughout this 8-week course. I have taken away some really powerful and effective tips and tricks, which I am already implementing and that are aiding me positively.”
Amy - London
Excellent Course
"There are so many things I can take away from the group sessions: lots of strategies to help me in my everyday life, trying not to be so hard on myself, and using the three main things to keep my ADHD in check. Also, the strategies to help my procrastination have been useful.”

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common childhood disorders and can continue through adolescence, and up to 2/3 continue into adulthood. Symptoms include difficulty staying focused and paying attention, difficulty controlling behaviour (extremely impulsive), and hyperactivity (over-activity). Over 60% of people diagnosed with ADHD may have an additional Co-morbid condition.
Discover a wealth of support for parents and caregivers of children with ADHD through a free guide on how to get an assessment and strategies. This resource provides a comprehensive toolkit for effective support.

ADHD Assessment Pathway for Children
CAMHS or Pediatritian
NHS Assessment
Referral: This typically starts with a GP referral to a specialist, such as a psychiatrist, paediatrician (for children), or a specialist ADHD service.
Waiting Time: In some regions, NHS waiting lists can be long, sometimes extending to over a year.
Process: This includes interviews, questionnaires (for both the patient and those who know them well), and often, a review of medical and educational history.
Cost: Free, but may take significant time due to waiting lists.
Private ADHD Clinics
Private Assessment
Process: This is similar to the NHS process but often quicker. A psychiatrist or ADHD specialist will conduct interviews and assessments.
Cost: Can range from £900 to £1,500, depending on the provider and the complexity of the assessment.
Speed: Much quicker than NHS, often with an appointment available within a few weeks.
Assessment can be carried out online from home
