How the ADHD Assessment Works in Birmingham

Reduce uncertainty with a step-by-step guide to the process.

Many adults feel overwhelmed by the idea of getting assessed. This section aims to provide clarity and confidence by breaking down what to expect from start to finish.

What to Expect:

Visit our booking page, and choose a time and date convenient for you—we have available slots for weekends and evenings to fit around your schedule.

Complete a short online form to share your background, main concerns, and personal goals. This helps us tailor your assessment from the outset.

You’ll meet with a Chartered Psychologist. We use evidence-based tools, including validated ADHD rating scales and cognitive screening, led by experienced clinicians. Unlike NHS assessments, our approach offers shorter wait times and a more personalised pace.

Within a few days, you’ll get a professional report summarising your ADHD evaluation, findings, diagnosis (if criteria are met), and personalised recommendations like treatment options, workplace or academic adjustments, and coaching pathways.

If appropriate after a private ADHD diagnosis, we arrange follow-up medication sessions or a discussion of coaching, therapy, or shared care plans. We’ll help you prepare the information your GP needs for ongoing support.

Comprehensive ADHD & Autism Services Tailored for You

Early identification of ADHD symptoms by expert clinicians.

ADHD screening is an important first step in understanding whether you or a loved one may be experiencing symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It is not a diagnosis but a helpful tool designed to identify key behavioural patterns and challenges that are commonly associated with ADHD. This process helps determine whether a full clinical assessment is recommended.

At our clinic, we offer a quick, accessible, and confidential ADHD screening experience. The screening includes evidence-based questionnaires and symptom checklists that focus on core areas such as inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. You’ll be asked about common struggles, such as difficulties with concentration, memory, task completion, restlessness, or emotional regulation. It’s particularly useful for adults who may have gone undiagnosed in childhood but are now recognising ongoing challenges in their personal or professional life.

Our screening is designed to be user-friendly and only takes a few minutes to complete. It can be completed online, in the comfort of your own space, and the results are reviewed by trained professionals who understand the nuances of adult ADHD. If your results suggest a likelihood of ADHD, we’ll guide you through the next steps — usually recommending a full diagnostic assessment with one of our experienced clinicians.

While screening doesn’t replace a formal diagnosis, it provides valuable insight and reassurance, helping many people take that first step toward clarity and support. Whether you’re exploring concerns for yourself or a loved one, our ADHD screening process is a non-judgemental and empowering starting point. We also offer follow-up consultations to discuss your results and options for next steps, including diagnosis, treatment, or coaching.

Take the first step today — complete your ADHD screening and begin your journey towards clarity and personalised support.

A thorough, adult-focused diagnostic pathway.

Our ADHD assessment explores your profile in depth—how symptoms show up now and across your life, what you find difficult, and what already works well. We consider co-occurring conditions, masking, and overlap with autistic traits so nothing important is missed.

The process typically includes a detailed clinical interview, standardised measures, and (where helpful) informant input from a family member or partner. We also review school or work history and previous reports to build a clear picture of your strengths and support needs

We practise shared decision-making. If ADHD is diagnosed, we discuss tailored options: medication, coaching, workplace/academic adjustments, and practical routines to reduce overwhelm. If the picture is more complex, we’ll explain why and outline a plan you can act on.

You’ll receive a comprehensive written report with conclusions, reasoning, and specific recommendations you can use with employers, universities, and your GP. A feedback session is available to walk you through the results and next steps.

Built for clarity, confidence, and an actionable plan.

Safe, collaborative prescribing with careful follow-up.

When clinically appropriate, we offer ADHD medication with a structured titration plan. We begin with a suitability review, baseline health checks (e.g., blood pressure and heart rate), and an explanation of benefits, side-effects, and alternatives so you can make an informed choice.

Titration is paced to your goals and comfort. You’ll have regular check-ins to review focus, sleep, appetite, and mood, and we’ll adjust dosing accordingly. We also discuss lifestyle strategies—nutrition, movement, sleep hygiene—that make medication work better.

Where possible, we coordinate with your GP, including Shared Care arrangements. If Shared Care isn’t available locally, we’ll explain ongoing options and costs transparently.

Medication is only one part of support. Many people do best with a combined plan—coaching for routines and executive-function skills, plus reasonable adjustments at work or study.

Clear monitoring, responsive adjustments, and honest guidance at every step.

Practical strategies that fit real life (ADHD- and autism-aware)


Coaching turns goals into doable steps. We focus on planning, prioritising, task initiation, time-blindness, and building sustainable routines. Sessions are collaborative and strengths-based, helping you design systems that survive busy weeks—not just good intentions.

If you’re also autistic or suspect you might be, we’ll include sensory and communication strategies, environment tweaks, and burnout prevention. We can involve partners or parents for shared tools that actually help day to day.

Expect clear targets between sessions, gentle accountability, and adjustments as we learn what works for you. We’ll also help you advocate for reasonable adjustments at work or university and set up simple tools for tracking progress.

Coaching works with or without a diagnosis and pairs well with medication titration.

Small changes, stacked consistently, create big results.

Autism Assessment (Adults & Children)

Autism assessment is an important step in understanding whether you or your child may be autistic—and in identifying the supports that make life easier. Our approach is neurodiversity-affirming and sensitive to age, culture, and masking. We also consider AuDHD (autism with co-occurring ADHD), anxiety, and other factors that can shape how traits appear day to day.

Your assessment is clinician-led and thorough. For adults, we explore life history, current strengths and challenges, communication style, executive functioning, sensory profile, and the impact at work, study, and home. For children and young people, we include a developmental history with parents or carers, age-appropriate tasks and observations, and (where possible) input from school or other settings. Validated questionnaires and structured interviews are used to ensure an evidence-based conclusion.

The process is designed to be clear and accessible. Appointments can be completed online or in-person, with options to share previous reports or teacher/GP feedback. We explain each step, what we’re looking for, and how long it’s likely to take. If ADHD traits are present, we’ll discuss whether a combined AuDHD assessment is appropriate or if sequencing assessments would be better for you.

You will receive a clear outcome and a comprehensive written report. This includes an explanation of findings, your strengths, and personalised recommendations—for example, sensory and environment adjustments, communication supports, executive-function strategies, and signposting to coaching or community resources. For children, we provide school-ready guidance that can inform reasonable adjustments and support plans; for adults, we include practical suggestions for workplace or university accommodations.
