Understanding Our Assessment Process & Fees

All of our assessments are split into two separate stages designed to provide clarity and individualised care. 


As a responsible provider, this approach ensures clients only invest in assessments suitable for their needs, where a positive diagnosis is a likely outcome. 


Stage 1 additionally provides valuable insight for clinicians to tailor any further evaluations.

Stage 1: Initial Clinical Screening Assessment (ICSA)

£250


  • Purpose: Comprehensive screening to determine the presence of conditions like ADHD and/or ASD, alongside other potential explanations for symptoms.


  • Process:
    • You will complete a screening pack (developmental history, questionnaires) - estimated 2 hours.
    • A clinical psychologist reviews the pack and meets with you to discuss.
    • The Clinical Psychologist will provide you with personalised recommendations, a proposed diagnostic assessment plan and summary report.


Important Notes About Stage 1

It's important to understand that screening cannot provide a definitive diagnostic decision. Instead, it can inform you about the likelihood of a diagnosis, should you proceed with a comprehensive assessment.


Please note that stage 1 is compulsory and it is not possible to directly enter stage 2 even in the event you have had a screening assessment with an alternative provider.

Stage 2: Formal Diagnostic Assessment


  • Purpose: Provides the full comprehensive assessment to enable a formal diagnostic conclusion. We see all of our clients in person for a significant duration of time. 


  • Process:
    • The process of the assessment will vary depending on type and the age of the person being assessed. All assessments align with National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) best practice guidance. All assessments are supplemented with a full rationale and comprehensive report report.



Important Notes About Stage 2

We only give our clients a full quote for stage 2 of their diagnostic assessments after they have met us at stage 1. This is because we offer a personalised service. We do not want clients to pay for unnecessary components of the assessment. 


We understand that prospective clients may find it reassuring however to have some level of expectation around the fees. Our fees are competitive with other services who offer full, in person, diagnostic services at a comprehensive multidisciplinary level aligned with National Institute of Clinical Excellence guidelines.


It can be tempting to select a private service advertising much lower fees and sometimes very short online appointments. However we would encourage anybody who is thinking about private assessment, to ensure that they are selecting an appropriately qualified and comprehensive provider as any resulting diagnosis may not be recognised by the NHS or third-parties if the assessment process lacks sufficient quality. 


Having been delivering assessments privately for several years, we are proud to state that to date 100% of our assessments (of which there have been hundreds) have been recognised by the NHS, government bodies, educational authorities and social care.

The Finer Details

Stage 1 - Initial Clinical Screening Assessment (ICSA)

All self referring clients are required to attend an initial assessment with one of our specialist clinicians. As part of this assessment process you will be required to complete a compilation of standardised psychometric questionnaires and screens. Once completed these will be reviewed by your allocated clinical psychologist and you will then meet to discuss the outcome. Your clinician will take this opportunity to ask you any additional questions they may have. 


Purpose: Many symptoms can diagnostically overlap. For example, some symptoms attributed to Autism, may also be present in ADHD, other developmental conditions or difficulties with a psychological nature e.g. depression or anxiety. The purpose of the initial assessment is to consider the presence of ADHD and/or ASD, alongside other possible explanations. This ensures that any assessment that is undertaken is appropriate for your needs.

Combined Assessment

Sometimes it may be necessary to consider both Autism and ADHD at the second stage of assessment. Where we are considering both diagnoses at the same time, the overall total of the assessment may be able to be discounted due to certain overlaps with activities. 


Other Services

To help us to make an accurate diagnostic decision, occasionally we may require additional assessments or tests beyond those listed in the standard package. Examples include, a comprehensive extended speech and language assessment where a developmental speech disorder is suspected, or an occupational therapy assessment where a sensory processing disorder may better explain difficulties. Where possible we will advise you of this in the initial assessment, along with respective fees.
