Adult ADHD Assessments in the UK

What is ADHD in Adults?

ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) affects approximately 2.6 million people across the UK.

Symptoms include:

  • Inability to focus
  • Impulsivity
  • Hyperactivity

These can get worse if not managed correctly.

At The Therapy Company, we have highly experienced consultant psychiatrists, based in the UK, who can diagnose and treat ADHD.

Undiagnosed and untreated ADHD in adults can lead to further mental health conditions including anxiety and depression.

If left untreated, ADHD can persist as a significant burden in your life, having a direct impact on both your social and working life.

The ADHD Diagnosis Pathway

The diagnosis of ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) typically involves a comprehensive evaluation conducted by one of our consultant psychiatrists at the Therapy Company.

 

The process usually includes the following stages:

1 - Initial Assessment

For ADHD, we will arrange an initial assessment with you that will help us to gather the necessary information required. For example, we’ll need key information regarding your medical history and any previous diagnosis or treatments in UK.

2 - Diagnosis

After the interview, we will then look at the diagnostic criteria element. Ultimately, this is an assessment that evaluates persistent and impairing symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that are inconsistent with the individual’s developmental level.

3 - Rating Scales & Questionnaires

Standardised rating scales and questionnaires may be used to gather additional information about the individual’s behaviour and functioning. These tools are completed by the individual, parents and other relevant individuals who can provide valuable insights into the individual’s behaviour across different settings.

Further stages of ADHD diagnosis may also include medical evaluations and collaborations before giving the definitive diagnosis with full accuracy.

Psychiatry Treatments For ADHD in UK

The Therapy Company provide on-going treatments to manage ADHD symptoms including medication, CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) and Counselling.

 

Here’s some further information about each one:

Book Your Appointment

CBT

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is a common type of therapy used to help and manage ADHD symptoms. CBT can help individuals to identify and change negative thinking patterns and therefore develop much better coping strategies. Ultimately, CBT can help you to become much more self-aware of your emotions, thoughts, and behaviours. As a result of this, it can lead to less impulsivity and increased attention span.

Medication

Our private psychiatrists at The Therapy Company UK are also able to provide specific medications that can help to manage ADHD symptoms. Specific medications prescribed from our psychiatrists can help improve focus, reduce impulsivity, and decrease hyperactivity. Non-stimulant medications may also be used as alternatives or in combination with stimulant medications.

Counselling

While counselling can not directly treat the symptoms of ADHD, it’s a great option to consider for many patients and can work well alongside medication and/or Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. Counselling can provide valuable support, guidance, and strategies to manage the emotional and psychological challenges often associated with the condition. Additionally, it can also help with goal setting, motivation, and provide additional emotional support.

NOTE:

  • If a diagnosis is made and medication is prescribed, you will require a follow up appointment every four weeks for around three months or until you reach a stable regime (this is called the titration period).
  • Once this is reached, we can then set up a Shared Care Agreement with your GP so that they can take over the prescribing of any medication within your treatment plan.
  • Please be aware that we cannot guarantee that your GP will enter into a Shared Care Agreement, we therefore advise that you discuss this with them prior to your appointment.
