ADHD assessments focused entirely on you.

When it comes to ADHD, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to diagnosis. That's why we take a very comprehensive and personalised approach to your assessment. Our experienced mental health specialists will conduct a thorough ADHD assessment, taking into account various factors to ensure an accurate diagnosis and if required and chosen by you, an appropriate treatment plan.

We take a very comprehensive and personalised approach to ADHD assessments. Our experienced mental health specialists will conduct a thorough assessment, helping us to understand you, your life experiences and how ADHD symptoms may have affected your life.

It can impact careers and learning alongside relationship challenges, We prioritise providing rapid access to assessment and if applicable, treatment. We aim to minimise your waiting time, allowing you to start your journey towards better mental well-being as soon as possible.

Throughout your assessment process, we will need to gather information about you, your family history, your physical health, and understand your issues and any impact of your symptoms. We may also consider any previous child or adult ADHD diagnosis or treatment approaches that you may have undertaken. By understanding you and your unique circumstances, we can start the process of assessment and if diagnosed we can develop a tailored plan designed for you and your specific needs.

Why Beyond?

Why we're different

You can access our services online or in person.

You can choose to be assessed remotely, or in person at our clinic at our premises in Warrington. Our virtual service means that anyone can access care at a time that suits them, from the comfort of their own homes. Plus, you will receive the same exceptional standard of care as you would if you visited us at one of our clinics, including access to the same expert clinical team.

We’ve walked in your shoes.

Beyond was founded by a team of people who have been diagnosed with ADHD. We know exactly the kind of service and support we wish we had received. So now, it’s our turn to provide the service that we believe everyone deserves. With us, it’s not just about the diagnosis; it’s about giving you a clear path forward. We don’t just diagnose your ADHD, we understand it.

Our assessment process is second to none.

Through our own individual experiences, we found that the assessment process offered by the majority was lacking: it wasn't comprehensive or robust enough, and we didn't feel enough time was spent on each person. That’s why we offer services that other ADHD clinics don’t, throughout our entire process.

Full support following diagnosis.

Our psychiatrists are keen to advise on adjustments for school, work, or university to help their patients to excel whatever their stage of life. As well as regular contact from a specialist mental health nursing team, we also take away the monthly stress of locating your medication by managing your prescription and delivering it to your door before you run out.

Process

Our simple
step-by-step process

Beyond offer the most comprehensive ADHD assessment process available today. We employ the most up to date and fundamental testing tools required to give the most accurate diagnosis. The results of each test work together to form a clear picture of each individual case. Our unique assessment process ensures that our assessments are highly robust, and we provide a full suite of information for transfer of care.

Information gathering

To help us to gather a comprehensive understanding of your experiences.

We’ll send you two forms to complete; one for you to fill out about yourself and another for someone who knew you well as a child. These forms help us to gather a comprehensive understanding of your experiences from birth to now. The greater depth of information we gain here the more comprehensive the assessment process, however we know for some people this may not be possible, please don’t worry just let us know and we will be able to guide you.

DIVA 5

This validated assessment seeks to understand which of the diagnostic criteria for ADHD you fulfil.

One of our specialist ADHD nurse practitioners or Psychologists will meet with you (in person or online) to complete the DIVA 5 interview. This validated assessment seeks to understand which of the diagnostic criteria for ADHD you fulfil, by asking questions about symptoms experienced in childhood and if relevant into adulthood. We will evaluate symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, as well as explore potential other ADHD symptoms further.

Many ADHD services complete the DIVA5 within the psychiatrist assessment - but we believe, that doing the DIVA5 prior to meeting our psychiatrist allows us to clinically evaluate ADHD and other potential co-morbidities in more detail, and look into how these impact your life – this provides you with a greater depth of understanding of what you experience and why.

Assessment and outcome with a Specialist Psychiatrist

You will meet one of our dedicated psychiatrists who will complete a comprehensive assessment of your difficulties.

You will meet with one of our dedicated psychiatrists either in person or online, who will clinically evaluate all the information gathered and complete a comprehensive assessment of your symptoms. They may ask further questions regarding your physical and mental health history, your experience of friendships, relationships, school and work if applicable. The psychiatrist will let you know if you meet the criteria for diagnosis of ADHD during this meeting.

They will ensure you fully understand ADHD and the impact this might be having on your life. They will explain your treatment options to you and answer any questions you may have.

If medication is discussed as a suitable treatment option , they will make recommendations based on your physical and mental health and advise our team to set you up on our medication care plan.

Following your assessment, you will be provided with a comprehensive assessment report. This report may be used to support PIP applications or disability student allowance if required.

If you receive a diagnosis, we will also provide letters (on request, but free of charge) for your academic provider or employer suggesting reasonable adjustments. If you are not diagnosed, your psychiatrist will explain why and may consider alternative mental health conditions or recommend further assessments as appropriate.

Testimonials

We have treated
hundreds of amazing people

“The whole process from end to end was absolutely exceptional. From the initial call with the receptionist, to seeing the nurse and then the Psychiatrist, every interaction was really positive and friendly, which really helped put our son (and us) at ease. They did an excellent job of explaining how the process worked and gave us a really detailed outcome meeting to help us understand the assessment and the outcome. I am very grateful for the kindness and empathy shown by the team and I would wholeheartedly recommend Beyond.”

Matt Lipscombe

“Omg, I don’t know where I would be without beyond, my son had been on the waiting list with camhs since 2019, beyond confirmed what we already knew in a matter of weeks and now my son is getting the support he has deserved all along, there’s still along way to go but with beyond I know I’m not on my own and have felt that way for such a long time, the team is so professional, and friendly, so happy I chose to do this. Thanks so much for everything words can’t express the help and support you have provided.”

Kirstie Musgrave

“From start to finish everyone has been lovely. I felt listened to and the whole process has been smooth. On the basis of my experience I would recommend them. Yes it’s expensive but the benefits of being on meds for me have been massive already. I feel I have a life back. I’m able to function better at work and my increased hours and productivity have paid for the initial expense.”

Fiona Wright

“I honestly can’t fault Beyond. Every single member of staff I spoke to were exceptional. I booked for my daughter after my assessment. They provide so much detail throughout the whole process, the clinic was fantastic. Without a doubt I would recommend to others, thank you Beyond.”

Claire Green

“I was initially skeptical about whether I should go private, mostly because of the cost however, I have nothing but great things to say about Beyond. The assessments are very comprehensive and I've had such joy getting to know the team. I'm due to start my medication plan with them now and I can't wait for my life to change. 10/10 recommend Beyond 👌 You changed my life, the least I can do is leave a review so that it may help you change someone else's.”

Jynx

“Beyond were amazing, from the first call to getting a diagnosis took less that 10 days and the process was both easy, pleasant and extremely thorough with multiple tests and consultations included.”

Rebecca Hartley

“Very efficient service. Thank you so much for your professional help.”
