What our clients say
Thank you so much for the letter. It summarises everything about my son and is just what I need to send to his possible future schools. Thank you once again for all your help. It really has been life changing for us and for my son and hopefully now he can reach his full potential.
Thank you ever so much to the Team for an incredibly positive experience! Thank you for actively listening to us, for understanding my son’s experience and for all your care and compassion. You have no idea what a huge positive impact you’ve made to our lives!
I felt listened to, it was easy to talk to them, I was treated well, and my views and worries were taken seriously, I felt that the people that saw me knew how to help me.
What we do
We are a specialist mental health service specialising in neurodivergence, ADHD and autism assessment in children and adolescents, run by national experts in ADHD and autism. Our directors have decades of experience in neurodevelopmental conditions, including leading national and specialist services, receiving NHS Clinical Excellence awards, publishing national and international research, and serve on Royal College of Psychiatrists' committees improving service provision for children with autism and ADHD.
Assessment of neurodivergence, ADHD and autism and the mental health conditions that co-occur with these disorders in children and adolescents is our passion. All our hand-picked clinicians are specialists in this field. We thrive on disentangling complex cases which have appeared as conundrums to parents and professionals. This is all we do, and we do it exceptionally well. In this field, we consider ourselves the A-team. We are proud to be the 'go-to' assessment service that many professionals in the field of psychiatry recommend. We follow and often go beyond NICE guideline recommendations for good practice in assessment.
Our charity work
We believe that excellent health care is not just for the privileged. Over the last 3 years we have teamed up with our charity partners ADD-vance ADHD and ADHD Embrace to provide free ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) or autism assessment for children in Hertfordshire and London who are in primary school years 5 & 6 and are eligible for free school meals. We have donated over £100K worth of assessments to children on free school meals.
