How is ADHD Diagnosed?

Unlike traditional medical conditions diagnosed through blood tests or scanning technologies like MRI machines, ADHD defies such straightforward diagnostic methods.

At ADHD Certify, we recognise that a precise ADHD diagnosis requires the expertise of our specialised clinicians, who conduct comprehensive examinations and evaluations.

What Can
ADHD Diagnosis Help With?

ADHD diagnosis can be beneficial in several ways, it helps people understand their difficulties better and supports an individual to overcome their personal hurdles.

Obtaining a diagnosis enables us to create a tailored treatment plan for you. This involves prescribing medication to manage your symptoms, implementing strategies to aid task management, and offering techniques to enhance impulse control.

A correct diagnosis and treatment of ADHD can lead to an improvement in:

  • The Relief of an Explanation
  • Issues at School and University
  • Concentration
  • Work Performance
  • Relationships Issues
  • Control of Your Brain
  • Social Anxiety
  • Self Compassion
  • Discovering Your Best Self
  • Self Confidence
  • Time Management
  • Energy Productively
Which Type of ADHD Treatment You Might Need?

It’s important to note that an ADHD diagnosis should be made by a qualified ADHD healthcare professional, based on a comprehensive assessment of symptoms and history. Additionally, treatment plans should be individualised, taking into account the unique needs and preferences of the person with ADHD.

The strategies for managing ADHD include:

  • Behavioural Therapy
  • Speech and Language Therapy
  • Biofeedback
  • Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  • Psychiatric Evaluation
  • Parenting Strategies
