You don't have to navigate this alone
Finding the right support can feel overwhelming. Many of the people who come to us have spent years feeling different, misunderstood, or like everyday life took more effort than it seemed to take everyone else.
We support children, young people and adults with ADHD, autism, combined ADHD and autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation, and neurodivergent wellbeing.
From screening to aftercare: what actually happens
For us, assessment isn't simply about reaching a diagnosis. It's about helping people better understand themselves and ensuring they have meaningful support for what comes next.
Screening appointment
50–60 minutes, remote with our clinical or counselling psychologists
50–60 minutes, remote, completed by our HCPC-registered counselling or clinical psychologists. We complete recognised screening measures with you to see whether a full assessment is the right next step, and which one. £180, taken off your assessment fee if you go ahead. Recommended if you're not sure which pathway, not mandatory.
Assessment
ADHD, autism or combined
A full ADHD, autism or combined assessment: in-depth clinical sessions, recognised diagnostic tools, and information from someone who knows you well, where appropriate.
Multi-disciplinary review
Reviewed before any outcome is agreed
Every assessment draws on more than one source of evidence and is reviewed at a multi-disciplinary meeting before any outcome is agreed, so no single conversation or questionnaire ever carries the whole diagnostic decision.
Report and aftercare
Start of support, not the end
A comprehensive written report with recommendations, then support that fits: psychoeducation, therapy, one-to-one neurodiversity coaching, workshops, and guidance for work or education.
Our assessment pathways are designed to align with NICE guidelines NG87 (ADHD), CG128 (autism in under 19s) and CG142 (autism in adults).
What it costs
We understand a full assessment is a significant financial decision. That's why, if you're not sure which assessment is right for you, we recommend a screening appointment first: it's there to help you feel confident in your decision before booking.

“I'm also neurodivergent myself. That's a big part of why this business exists. I know what it's like to feel misunderstood, and to sit in services that weren't really built with people like me in mind.”
