Do I have ADHD?
Most adults feel like an imposter, they worried about not beling believed and that they will look like they are “jumping on the bandwagon.”
A good assessment process should help you sense of things that you have known for years but not understood.
It should help give context and igve you some awareness of both the challenges and the strengths so you make changes that actually fit.
Alongside 17 years of professional experience working with ADHD, I also bring that personal understanding into my work.
The assessment process
Clear. Structured. Collaborative.
Seeking an ADHD assessment can feel like a big step — especially if you’ve spent years wondering whether things were due to “not trying hard enough” or “not being smart enough.”
My role is to make the process straightforward and supportive.
Step 1 — Questionnaires at home
You’ll complete structured questionnaires in your own time.
These help build a picture of how ADHD traits may have shown up across your life.
Step 2 — Two one-hour sessions
We’ll meet for two focused sessions to:
explore your history, experiences and patterns
understand what’s been difficult and what’s working
look at how you’ve been managing so far
If helpful, a partner or trusted person can be involved in part of the process.
Step 3 — Report and next steps
You’ll receive a clear written report.
If ADHD is diagnosed, we’ll talk through next steps, which may include:
sharing your report with your GP
referral to a psychiatrist (if appropriate)
What happens after the assessment
For some people, the main value is clarity, finally understanding why things have felt the way they have.
For others, it’s the starting point for making changes to build a life that fits how their brain works.
If you’d like ongoing support, this can be discussed as a separate step.
Next step
If you’ve been wondering about ADHD for a while, this is a place to start.
