What the ADHD and Autism screening call covers

A structured 30 minute child friendly online call with a clinician or trained specialist. We use it to explore your child’s ADHD or Autism traits and history and recommend the right assessment pathway.

Explore ADHD traits

We look at focus, time management, organisation, impulsivity, and how these affect child’s daily life.

Explore Autism traits

We explore things like sensory overload, masking, social challenges and how much structure or routine your child needs day to day.

Decide your next step

We explain whether ADHD assessment or Autism assessment fits your child best, and outline medication and shared care options.

Who this screening call is for

This call is for parents who want a gentle, clinical space to explore possible ADHD or Autism traits in their child before moving forward with a full assessment.

This is for you if

• You have noticed traits that could be ADHD, Autism or both and want guidance on what to do next
• Your child is waiting for NHS support and you want to explore faster options
• You are not sure whether an ADHD assessment, Autism assessment or a combined pathway is most appropriate
• You want clarity on the assessment process, costs and support options before deciding

It might not be right today if

• Your child needs urgent or crisis support that requires NHS or emergency service
• You are looking for a free informal chat rather than a structured clinical appointment
• You live outside the UK and are primarily seeking medication or ongoing treatment
• Your child already has a recent private ADHD or Autism diagnosis and you only need shared care setup

If you are in crisis or feel unsafe, please contact NHS 111, your GP, or emergency services, rather than booking a screening call.

Screening call frequently asked questions

It is normal to have questions before you book.

Taking the first steps to understand your child’s symptoms can feel overwhelming, but our team is ready to guide you with clarity and support.

The screening call helps you work out whether an ADHD assessment, an Autism assessment or a combined pathway is right for your child. We talk through the traits you have been seeing, explore your child’s developmental history and guide you through the options available at AuDHD Psychiatry.

No. A formal diagnosis can only be given after a full assessment. The screening call simply helps us understand whether our service is suitable for your child and which assessment pathway would be the most appropriate next step.

The screening call lasts around 30 minutes and takes place online. You can join from home using a phone, tablet, or computer.

Medication is not started from the screening call. If your child is diagnosed with ADHD after a full assessment and medication is considered appropriate, we will then discuss titration, monitoring and the options for shared care with your GP.

No. This is a paid clinical screening call with a specialist, not a free discovery call. The fee is £99 and covers protected time to look properly at possible ADHD or Autism traits in your child. If you decide to book a full ADHD, Autism or combined assessment within 7 days, this £99 is deducted from the total assessment cost.
