ADHD Assessment & Treatment

ADHD Assessment at Juno Clinic

ADHD assessment is more than completing a questionnaire or recognising yourself in a list of symptoms. Our assessment is a thorough clinical process, carried out in line with NICE guidance and recognised diagnostic criteria.

01

Screening

We start by understanding what has led you to consider ADHD and the difficulties you are experiencing. We also explore your mental health and other relevant factors to consider whether a full ADHD assessment is the appropriate next step.

02

ADHD Assessment

If appropriate, we progress to a detailed in-person ADHD assessment. We explore your experiences throughout your life, the impact of your symptoms and information from other sources, including someone who knew you during childhood where possible.

03

Outcome

Around 2–3 weeks later, we meet again to explain the findings and outcome in detail. If ADHD is diagnosed, we can then discuss your individual needs and options for support and treatment.

A thorough clinical assessment

ADHD is not diagnosed from a questionnaire or screening score alone. We consider your symptoms across your lifetime, how they affect different areas of your life, your developmental history, your physical and mental health and whether another condition could better explain the difficulties you are experiencing.

We also review supporting information, which may include information from your GP, someone who knows you well and, where available, childhood records such as school reports.

The complete assessment process involves approximately 6–8 hours of clinician time, including appointments, reviewing supporting information, clinical formulation and report writing.

Not sure where to start?

You are welcome to speak directly with an ADHD clinician before deciding whether you would like to proceed. There is no obligation to book an assessment afterwards.
