ADHD
Structured assessment for attention, focus, and activity-level concerns, in children and adults, leading to a coordinated support plan.
What it is
ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) affects attention, impulse control, and activity level, and can look different across children, teenagers, and adults. A structured assessment separates ADHD from overlapping presentations like anxiety or learning difficulty, so the plan that follows is matched to what's actually driving the symptoms.
Common symptoms & concerns
- Difficulty sustaining attention or following through on tasks
- Frequent distractibility or disorganisation
- Restlessness or difficulty staying seated (more prominent in children)
- Impulsive decisions or interrupting others
- Symptoms present across more than one setting, such as school or work and home
Assessment & care
Assessment approach
Assessment includes structured history from the individual and, where relevant, family or teachers, alongside standardised tools, so the picture reflects functioning across settings rather than a single observation.
In-scope care
In-scope care includes ADHD assessment and coordination with allied therapy, such as behavioural support, based on the individual's age and presentation.
How we treat it
Behaviour therapy, parent training, social skills work and neurofeedback, with gut-health and diet support, coordinated between home and school.
