What to expect on the day of assessment

A gold-standard neurodevelopmental assessment is a thorough clinical investigation. Here is what you should expect from this provider:

  • Pre-Assessment Check: You will complete pre-screening questionnaires (such as ASRS for ADHD or AQ-10 for Autism) and gather background information.
  • Structured Diagnostic Interview: The clinician will conduct a clinical interview using validated tools (like the DIVA-5 (ADHD), ADOS-2 (Autism), ADI-R (Autism)). They will discuss your development, school reports, and current day-to-day challenges.
  • Informant Report: Where possible, a parent, partner, or close friend who knew you in childhood or knows you well now will be interviewed to corroborate symptoms.
  • Outcome & Feedback: A detailed diagnostic report is issued explaining the diagnosis and mapping out recommended accommodations or treatment plans.

This provider's reports are Widely accepted by NHS trusts and local councils for schools (EHCPs), which supports the case for shared care.
