Understanding Neurodiversity Assessment Options
ADHD & ADD Diagnosis and Assessment
ADHD is generally grouped into three categories:
- Inattentive presentation – More difficulty focusing and staying organised.
- Hyperactive-Impulsive presentation – More restlessness, impulsivity, and difficulty staying still.
- Combined presentation – A mix of both inattention and hyperactivity.
If you’re unsure whether ADHD is something you experience, try our ADHD quiz and find out if you match some of the key traits.
Is Getting a Diagnosis Important?
For many people, a diagnosis can be life-changing—it explains struggles they may have faced for years and helps them access the right support, whether at work, school, or in daily life.
However, some find they don’t need a formal diagnosis. They may have already built ways to manage their symptoms and don’t feel the need for a label. It’s a personal decision, but if you’re considering an assessment, we recommend speaking to a professional or exploring our recommended providers.
What Happens in an ADHD Diagnosis?
The process of getting diagnosed isn’t just about ticking a few boxes—it’s a detailed assessment to understand your unique experiences. Typically, it involves:
A discussion with a professional – Your GP or a specialist will ask about your focus, organisation, and general behaviour.
Questionnaires or rating scales – These help measure specific ADHD traits.
Gathering feedback – If possible, professionals may ask for insights from family, friends, or teachers.
Ruling out other conditions – Since symptoms can overlap with anxiety or learning difficulties, additional assessments may be needed.
Who Can Diagnose ADHD/ADD?
If you suspect you have ADHD, you’ll need to see a qualified professional, such as:
Your GP (General Practitioner) – They can offer advice and refer you to a specialist.
A clinical psychologist – Focuses on behavioural assessments.
A psychiatrist – Can diagnose and prescribe medication if needed.
Specialist ADHD services – Available through the NHS or private providers.
Common ADHD Traits
ADHD looks different for everyone, but some of the most common signs include:
- Difficulty concentrating – Easily losing track of tasks or conversations.
- Impulsivity – Speaking or acting without thinking.
- Restlessness – Feeling constantly ‘on the go’ or struggling to sit still.
If these sound familiar, our ADHD quiz can help you explore these traits further.
ADD vs ADHD: What’s the Difference?
ADD is often used when referring to attention difficulties without hyperactivity. ADHD, on the other hand, includes both focus-related struggles and hyperactive or impulsive behaviour.
The distinction doesn’t change the support available—understanding how ADHD affects you is what matters most.
Autism Diagnosis and Assessment
Getting an autism diagnosis can be a big step towards understanding yourself or a loved one better. Whether you're looking into it for a child or as an adult, knowing what to expect can make the process feel a lot less daunting.
Why does an autism diagnosis matter?
An autism diagnosis isn’t just a label—it helps explain how someone experiences the world and can unlock access to the right support, adjustments, and community. It can also help individuals and their families better understand strengths, challenges, and needs.
How does the process work?
The road to diagnosis usually involves a few key steps, starting with screening tools and questionnaires. These help spot traits commonly linked to autism. From there, specialists carry out in-depth assessments, which might include interviews, observations, and standardised tests to build a full picture of how someone thinks, communicates, and interacts.
Who can diagnose autism?
Autism assessments are usually done by clinical psychologists, developmental paediatricians, or specialist teams trained in neurodiversity. If you're considering getting assessed, it's best to find professionals with experience in autism and related conditions.
What's an autism spectrum assessment?
An autism spectrum assessment is a detailed evaluation designed to see where someone sits on the spectrum and whether they meet the criteria for an autism diagnosis. It differs from general autism screening tools, which just give an indication of whether further assessment might be needed. If you want to start with a quick online check, try our Autism Quiz.
What are the common signs of autism?
Autism presents differently in everyone, but common signs include differences in social interaction, sensory sensitivities, routines, and communication styles. Some people might struggle with eye contact, find loud noises overwhelming, or prefer predictable routines. Others may have intense interests or a deep focus on certain topics.
When can autism be diagnosed?
Autism can be identified from a young age, sometimes as early as toddlerhood, but many people don’t get diagnosed until much later in life. Some only realise they might be autistic in adulthood, often after their own child is diagnosed or through personal research. It’s never too late to seek an assessment if you think it could help.
What happens after a diagnosis?
After a diagnosis, next steps depend on the individual. Some may find support through therapy, coaching, or workplace adjustments, while others simply feel relieved to have a better understanding of themselves. Either way, an official diagnosis can be a turning point in navigating life with more clarity and confidence.
