ADHD / Autism Assessment

Our ADHD assessment package includes two core appointments:

  • 2–3 hour initial evaluation, which involves detailed clinical interviews, completion of standardised questionnaires, and the production of a full diagnostic report.
  • 1 hour follow-up review, held a few weeks later, to assess initial response to treatment, adjust medication if needed, and plan your ongoing care.

Important: ADHD treatment requires careful titration and monitoring. As such, further follow-up appointments will be necessary to ensure safe and effective medication management. Each follow-up appointment will incur a separate consultation fee, and the frequency of these reviews will be discussed with you during your care planning. Treatment is available for children 11 years and above.

You may benefit from psychiatric input if you or someone in your care is experiencing:

  • Difficulty with concentration, restlessness, or impulsivity
  • Changes in mood, prolonged sadness, or anxiety
