I really enjoyed the course, he was really informative!
Tristin
The admin leading up to the day was not ideal for me. I had to ask repeatedly to be sent links for the day before they arrived. The day itself was very professional and informative. I enjoyed The trainer's professional approach and insight. The breaks were interestingly timed. It seemed longer and heavier in the afternoon, which possibly needs a rethink for ADHDer and it did go on a long time. But that said I am pleased I attended as I can now diagnose for ADHD and be part of the solution!

Holistic Treatment for ADHD
ADHD has a strong genetic link, and people who suffer from it have a difference in their neurobiological makeup. This means their brain is built differently.
Functional MRI has shown that the prefrontal cortex area of the brain, which is responsible for executive functioning (your brain’s CEO), has less dopamine.
Medication works by increasing the dopamine uptake in this area, helping to improve attention, focus and impulse control.
There have been lots of stigmas around ADHD historically and many myths. Some myths say that ADHD is a ‘made-up’ mental disorder. Others say that people who suffer from ADHD need to ‘try harder’ or are lazy. All are incorrect. Around 70% of those with ADHD struggle with paying attention, whilst less than 5% of neurotypical suffer from this.
At Private ADHD Assessment, we believe in both medicated and holistic treatment plans for ADHD patients. Combined with medication, a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, and exercising are all highly beneficial. Just as with taking care of our physical health, mental health care is vital to living a fulfilling, healthy, and happy life.
The easiest way to describe things is that ADHD is like having a brain that is similar to a Ferrari but in the wrong gear; if you constantly rev the engine with racing ideas and thoughts, you can burn the engine out.
The medication and treatment allow you to harness the power of ADHD and achieve the potential of ADHDpreneurs such as Richard Branson and Bill Gates.
Over 40% of entrepreneurs have neurodiversity or learning impairments, having a brain that approaches solutions in a unique way will allow one to come up with unique and creative solutions that neurotypicals may not have thought of.
People with ADHD are remarkable at streamlining systems but often lack the executive function to follow through.

Stimulant Medications
Stimulant medications are the most commonly prescribed treatment for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). They work by increasing the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly dopamine and norepinephrine, which help improve attention, focus, and impulse control. These medications have a rapid onset of action, often showing effects within 30 minutes to an hour after ingestion.
Find out more
Non Stimulant Medication
Non-stimulant medications are an alternative for individuals who cannot tolerate stimulants or when stimulants are ineffective. These medications tend to have a slower onset of action and may take several weeks to reach full efficacy. They work by different mechanisms to improve attention, impulse control, and other ADHD symptoms

ADHD Assessment FAQs
A few of our frequently asked questions about assessments
What is the assessment for ADHD?
ADHD assessments typically involve a series of evaluations to determine if an individual meets the DSM criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. These assessments can include interviews with the individual, their parents or caregivers, and teachers to gather information about symptoms and behaviours. Additionally, questionnaires and rating scales may be used to assess the severity of symptoms and their impact on daily functioning. Other assessments, such as cognitive neuropsychology testing and behavioural observations, may also be carried out to provide a comprehensive understanding of the individual's difficulties. Overall, the assessment process for ADHD aims to accurately diagnose the condition and develop an appropriate treatment plan to help manage symptoms effectively.
What does an ADHD assessment for adults involve?
An ADHD assessment for adults typically involves thoroughly reviewing the individual's medical history, symptoms, and behaviour patterns. It may include self-report questionnaires, interviews with family members or significant others, and cognitive testing to assess areas such as attention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity.
Is an ADHD assessment available in the UK?
Yes, ADHD assessments are available in the UK through healthcare providers, such as GPs, psychologists, and psychiatrists. Private ADHD offers professional adult ADHD assessments and ADHD assessments for children in a safe, professional and welcoming environment. You may choose to do an online assessment or visit us at our clinic in London.
How long is an assessment?
The booking process and initial questionnaire should only take a few minutes. The consultation itself involves an interview questionnaire that takes around an hour to complete as well as a discussion with your practitioner that can take between an hour to an hour and a half in some cases if required, followed by a comprehensive assessment report, which will be emailed within 10 working days.
How much does an Adult ADHD assessment cost?
Adult ADHD assessments cost £650.
What happens if I'm diagnosed with ADHD?
If you are diagnosed with ADHD, you will receive a proposed treatment plan along with options tailored to your diagnosis, as well as an information pack outlining the next steps for implementing your treatment plan.
What if I decide to take medication?
For adults with ADHD, treatment often includes stimulant medications such as Methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta) and Amphetamine-based drugs (Adderall, Vyvanse). These medications help improve focus, attention, and impulse control and are usually prescribed in higher doses compared to those for children. Non-stimulant options like Atomoxetine (Strattera) are also available, particularly for adults who have additional conditions like anxiety or heart issues.
ADHD titration involves starting with the lowest dose of ADHD medication and gradually increasing it. It may take up to a week to notice a difference in your symptoms when taking the medication.
It’s common to have a few side effects with ADHD medication, but titration is how we avoid this by gradually increasing the dose. Some side effects are reduced appetite, weight loss, transient blood pressure increases, headaches and trouble sleeping.
Find out more about ADHD Medication
Medication is recommended as the first-line treatment in ADHD for adults and certain age groups in childrenwith clinically significant impairment in their life (NICE, 2008). Any medication must be considered carefully along with any health concerns or other issues that would contraindicate a trial of medication. Taking into account your diagnosis and symptoms, consideration of a trial of medication may be appropriate to determine whether this would assist you with your ADHD symptoms. Medications have been found to improve attention span, task completion and self-organisation, whilst reducing impulsivity, distractibility, and restlessness.
Please find a video link here on medications and ADHD. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcTXHy35nWE If you have concerns about taking medications for ADHD, you will have the opportunity to discuss this withan ADHD Specialist. There are many myths about treatment. Treatment carries fewer risks than not taking treatment. Please find a useful video discussing common myths around ADHD medication: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCIT0YbNSCU Life with unrecognised ADHD often leads to mental health problems. It is important to consider the impact of these as well as ADHD on wellbeing. Treatment with medication will likely improve your symptoms of ADHD and this can change how other issues impact on your wellbeing.
Safety Notice: ADHD medications can sometimes be unsafe for individuals with pre-existing heart conditions. Therefore, an interim evaluation, such as an ECG, may be required from your GP (you will be advised if you need these investigations). If needed, we can recommend private GPs in your area who offer fast turnaround times.
Treatment Plan and Costs:
Medication Titration and Psychoeducation Appointments:
During the titration and optimisation phase (typically between 3-6 months depending on the response), attending monthly appointments and submitting your blood pressure readings is required. The fee is £245 per month/ per appointment for adults and £345 per month/ per appointment for children during this period.
Medication Costs: Please note that the cost of medication is not included in our fees. The average monthly cost from our recommended third-party pharmacies, which offer same-day in London and next-day delivery to your preferred location via DPD is £65 (varies on type or dosage) Once stable and optimised ( no change in dosage for 3 months): The fee is reduced to £95 per month for prescribing and monitoring.
Shared care agreements- We offer shared care agreements for £150 once stable and optimised

Are private ADHD assessments worth it?
A private ADHD assessment can be beneficial for those seeking a faster diagnosis, personalized care, and an alternative to long NHS waiting times. However, it's important to factor in the costs of ongoing private treatment and the potential for shared care agreements with a GP.
Private ADHD work with you and your existing GP to create effective shared care agreements that can help you save money in the long run.
Will the NHS accept private ADHD diagnosis?
Some GPs may accept a private ADHD diagnosis, but this isn't guaranteed. You may still need to go through the NHS for treatment and medication, which could require a reassessment and involve waiting times.
At Private ADHD, we work with you and your existing GP to bypass these hurdles and create effective shared care agreements that can help you save money in the long run.
How long is the NHS waiting list for ADHD?
NHS waiting times for ADHD assessments vary by location and can be exceptionally long, with some areas facing backlogs that may take up to eight years to clear. Exploring alternatives, such as exercising your Right to Choose, could be worth considering.
Can ADHD develop later in life?
ADHD is a developmental disorder, usually presenting in childhood, but it can be diagnosed later in life if symptoms were previously overlooked, unrecognized, or masked.
