The MAPP approach to ADHD assessments

Our assessment process has been carefully designed to be simple, rigorous and supportive of your next steps.

Free 15 minute consultation

Book a free 15 minute consultation call where we can listen to your experience, answer questions & help you decide if an assessment is the right next step for you or your child.

Pre-assessment ADHD testing

A £250 deposit secures your place, after which we’ll issue a set of pre-assessment ADHD tests to be completed online. If the results indicate a full assessment is unlikely to result in a diagnosis your deposit will be refunded in full.

ADHD assessment & report

Your full ADHD assessment is then carried out in person or online by one of our experienced doctors of psychology. They will then collate and share your results in a tailored report that presents clear outcomes & guidance on next steps.

Treatment & onward care

Your psychologist will arrange a call to walk you through your results and support you with clear next steps - whether that's ADHD therapy, shared care arrangements with your GP or ADHD medication.

Your ADHD assessment at MAPP

At MAPP Psychology we’re committed to providing children and adults with the highest standard of in-person and online ADHD assessments.

Our process is carefully designed to ensure clarity, precision & depth - helping us diagnose ADHD with the highest degree of accuracy and supporting you with tailored next steps.

  • Our team of expert psychologists specialise in understanding, assessing and diagnosing ADHD in adults and children.

    Each psychologist:

    • Holds an advanced doctorate level degree in psychology.

    • Has undergone extensive training in the assessment of ADHD in adults and children.

    • Stays up to date with the latest research and diagnostic criteria related to ADHD.

    • Ensures our assessments adhere to the highest standards of clinical practice in line with NICE guidelines.

  • We follow the NICE guidelines in line with the NHS, and employ a variety of psychometric tests designed to assess all key aspects of ADHD symptoms and related difficulties.

    These tests:

    • Are carefully selected based on their validity, reliability, and sensitivity to ADHD-related impairments.

    • Include measures of attention, executive functioning, impulsivity, and hyperactivity, among others.

    • Provide an objective and standardised way to measure ADHD symptoms.

    • Allow for a more accurate and reliable assessment compared to subjective observations alone.

    Our team understands that ADHD presents differently in each individual and can coexist with other conditions, such as learning disabilities or mood disorders.

  • We believe in a comprehensive approach to ADHD assessment that goes beyond just observation.

    Our private ADHD assessment involves:

    • A thorough verbal interview that provides a platform for you to express the life experiences and challenges you or your child are experiencing.

    • Valuable insights provided by loved ones, parents and other family members, recognising the unique perspectives they can bring on you or your child’s behaviour and functioning.

    By combining a full verbal assessment with collateral information we establish a clear understanding of the extent of any potential ADHD diagnosis.

    This ensures the assessment is holistic, thorough, accurate, and reflective of you or your child’s lived experience.

  • We understand the importance of creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere for private ADHD assessments:

    • Friendly and approachable psychologists: We’re incredibly proud of our highly qualified team who take the time to build rapport with you, fostering a trusting relationship that allows for open communication and collaboration. From the moment you step into our office you'll be greeted with a smile and treated with empathy and respect.

    • Thoughtful room designs: Our rooms provide a calming environment that minimises anxiety, and where you and/or your child can feel at ease throughout the assessment process.

Your ADHD report & next steps

At MAPP Psychology our commitment to your wellbeing extends beyond the assessment itself.

We’ve developed a personalised reporting process designed to share outcomes in a clear, practical and supportive format - serving as an important resource in positively managing your next steps.

  • Our ADHD assessment reports provide a clear and concise summary of our findings, ensuring that you and your family have a comprehensive understanding of the assessment outcome.

    In cases where ADHD is diagnosed:

    • Our report clearly communicates the diagnosis, outlining the specific symptoms and criteria met.

    • We provide detailed explanations to raise awareness on how these symptoms manifest in you or your child’s behaviour and functioning, as well as the potential impact on education, work life, and relationships.

    Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge, understanding and coaching you need to navigate a ADHD diagnosis effectively, offering guidance and support every step of the way.

  • Our team recognises that every individual’s experience with ADHD is unique, influenced by a myriad of factors including personality, environment and personal history.

    That's why our approach to private ADHD assessments and reports is deeply personalised and subjective.

    Our doctors:

    • Take the time to build rapport and understand you and/or your child.

    • Foster a trusting relationship that allows for open communication and collaboration throughout the assessment process.

    • Listen to your perspectives and experiences.

    • Ensure our reports and next steps reflect the nuances of your ADHD symptoms and the impact they have on your daily life.

  • If you or your child are diagnosed with ADHD, we will equip you with practical tools and coaching techniques to navigate the unique challenges you are experiencing.

    In addition to outlining any potential diagnosis, our reports:

    • Offer suggestions, coping strategies, and ADHD coaching customised to your specific needs and circumstances.

    • Provide techniques for improving attention and focus, managing impulsivity, enhancing organisational skills and fostering self-regulation.

    • Empower you to effectively manage your symptoms and optimise your functioning in various domains of life.

  • We have both an in-house GP and partnerships with Glasgow and Edinburgh based consultant Psychiatrists to provide patients and parents with support and treatment plans where necessary.

    • In-house GP: Can provide a cover letter to share your assessment report with your GP to support the diagnosis.

    • Partner Pyschiatrist: Can support with shared care arrangements with your GP, including ADHD medication where necessary.

Our reputation

  • “I don’t use the phrase often, but my experience with Fraser and MAPP has been life changing. I shall forever be thankful.”

  • “I just thought you’d like to know that my GP said your report was the highest standard of report he’d ever seen for an ADHD assessment.”

  • “My whole experience with MAPP was professional and incredibly helpful. From the booking process to working with my psychologist. The whole process was brilliant.”

  • “I was given help and advice throughout the entire process which made me feel comfortable in taking the leap to getting assessed privately. I am so glad that I did. I couldn’t recommend MAPP highly enough.”

  • “When I went in for my assessment I felt comfortable & able to talk openly about what I had been struggling with for the last 35 years! I felt heard properly for the first time in my life - I have been treated for anxiety since I was 14, to find out at 45 I have ADHD completely re framed my entire perspective on my mental state - everything makes sense now - I can stop searching for the “why” & start focusing on the “how”. I can’t recommend MAPP psychology enough.”
