What to Expect
Step 1 - Initial Telephone Call
A psychologist will speak with you briefly by telephone to discuss your reasons for considering an assessment and to agree a plan with you.
If you agree to attend an assessment, this will then take place over three 60-90 minute meetings.
​
Step 2 - General Mental Health Assessment - Part 1
The psychologist will speak with you about your concerns and how they have affected you over time. Together, you will begin to develop an understanding of how these difficulties have developed and how they are maintained.
Step 3 - ADHD Specific Assessment - Part 2
You may be asked to complete questionnaires, provide school or other relevant reports for review, and the psychologist may request to speak with someone who knows you well (e.g. a relative, partner, or friend).
​
Step 4 - Final Meeting - Recommendations & Report
A final meeting to discuss the assessment outcome and recommendations. You will also receive your written psychological assessment report. Referrals may then be made for psychological therapy and pharmacological therapy (medication).
​
Assessment meetings can take place in person or online, according to your preference, which will be discussed with your psychologist.
