We provide structured, high-quality assessment and treatment for children, young people, and adults. Our services include ADHD assessment and treatment, autism assessments, and support for a range of mental health difficulties such as anxiety and low mood.

Our assessments take place over a series of appointments so we can build a full and accurate understanding. This allows time for careful decision-making and clear, practical recommendations about next steps. Written reports are included, and all fees are explained clearly from the start, with no hidden costs.

Our aim is to offer timely and accessible care, combining clinical expertise with clear guidance and ongoing support throughout your journey.

Our ADHD assessment pathway is structured over four appointments to allow careful history taking, clinical assessment and detailed feedback. The fee is spread across the appointments rather than paid as a single upfront amount.

What is included:

• Full developmental and clinical history

• Review of questionnaires and supporting information

• Clinical assessment and observation

• Diagnostic formulation

• Initiation of medication (if indicated)

• Written report

• Clear treatment and monitoring plan
  
  

There are no additional report-writing fees.

Our ADHD non-diagnostic pathway is designed for individuals who have already received a diagnosis from another provider and are seeking ongoing management with our service. The process is structured over two appointments to allow a careful review of previous assessments and a safe, informed plan moving forward. The fee is spread across the appointments rather than paid as a single upfront amount.

What is included:

• Review of previous diagnostic reports and supporting information

• Detailed clinical review of current symptoms and functioning

• Assessment of medication history and response

• Screening for co-existing difficulties where relevant

• Medication optimisation or initiation (if indicated)

• Written report

• Clear treatment and monitoring plan
  
  

There are no additional report-writing fees.

Our autism assessments follow a structured, MDT-informed model and include comprehensive developmental history and clinical evaluation.

Included:

• Detailed history

• Clinical assessment

• MDT input

• Feedback appointment

• Written report
  
  

There are no additional report-writing fees.

This pathway is suitable for individuals presenting with anxiety disorders, mood difficulties, emotional dysregulation, or other general psychiatric concerns. Two extended appointments allow sufficient time to explore history in depth and develop a clear and considered management plan.

What is included:

• Detailed psychiatric and psychosocial history

• Risk assessment

• Diagnostic formulation

• Clear explanation of findings

• Written clinical summary

• Personalised treatment plan
  
  

There are no additional reportwriting fees.

This pathway is designed for individuals where both ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder are being considered, or where there is diagnostic complexity and overlap. It provides a structured, multidisciplinary evaluation to ensure that symptoms are carefully explored across developmental history, current functioning and different settings.

By assessing both conditions within a single integrated pathway, this approach reduces duplication, shortens overall timelines and avoids the need for separate full assessments.

This pathway is particularly suitable where symptoms overlap, where previous assessments have been inconclusive, or where a clear, integrated understanding of neurodevelopmental needs is required.

What is included:

• Detailed developmental and psychosocial history

• Review of questionnaires and supporting information

• Clinical assessment and observation

• Consideration of differential diagnoses and co-occurring conditions

• MDT input

• Diagnostic formulation covering ADHD and autism where applicable

• Feedback appointment with clear explanation of findings

• Comprehensive written report

• Personalised treatment and support plan
  
  

There are no additional report-writing fees.

Follow up consultations are used for ongoing review, medication titration and longer-term psychiatric support. These appointments allow time to monitor progress, adjust treatment where necessary and ensure that care remains safe and effective.

When medication is being initiated or adjusted, appointments are typically booked every four weeks until the dose is stable. Once stability has been achieved, reviews are generally required every three to six months, depending on age and clinical indication.

What is included:

• Review of current symptoms and overall functioning

• Medication monitoring and dose adjustment where appropriate

• Discussion of side effects and appetite or sleep concerns

• Review of physical observations when required

• Risk assessment where clinically indicated

• Updated treatment plan
  
  

There are no additional report-writing fees.

Weight review consultations are offered for patients who are otherwise stable on ADHD medication but are experiencing appetite suppression or concerns regarding weight. These focused appointments allow close monitoring while avoiding the need for a full review consultation.

Weight reviews are usually arranged monthly until appetite and weight have stabilised. Once stable, patients return to the standard three to six monthly follow up schedule.

What is included:

• Review of appetite and nutritional intake

• Weight monitoring

• Brief medication review where relevant

• Discussion of practical strategies to support appetite

• Clear plan regarding ongoing monitoring
  
  

These shorter appointments are designed to keep monitoring proportionate and affordable while maintaining safe prescribing standards.

Our psychological therapy appointments provide a structured and supportive space to explore difficulties and work towards meaningful change. Appointments are typically offered as a course of sessions, with the pace and frequency tailored to individual needs. Fees are charged per session rather than as a single upfront amount.

• Exploration of emotional, behavioural and relational patterns

• Development of a shared understanding and formulation

• Evidence-based therapeutic input tailored to individual needs

• Practical strategies to support coping and day-to-day functioning
