Schedule Assessment
Your assessment begins several days before your main clinical appointment. Following initial triage, adults complete structured assessment measures and an in-depth clinical interview. All findings are carefully reviewed by our clinical team in advance of your appointment. For children, we allow additional time to develop a comprehensive understanding of their developmental history and current needs. This may include consultation with parents or caregivers and, where appropriate, information from schools and other professionals. Assessments are available online or in person for both adults and children. A GP referral is not required to book an assessment. With your consent, we can liaise with your GP or other relevant professionals to share clinical findings where appropriate.
Adult assessments involve 2.5+ hours of integrated clinical evaluation. Neurodevelopmental assessments for children are more in-depth and may take several hours, often across different stages of the assessment process. At the conclusion of your assessment, your Consultant Psychiatrist will provide verbal feedback on the diagnostic outcome. Our clinical team then integrates all available information to produce a comprehensive clinical report within 10 working days. A post-report review is arranged to discuss recommended next steps, including tailored management strategies, ongoing care, treatment, medication and/or psychological therapy. Our aftercare involves periodic follow-up check-ins.
