ADHD and Autism Screening Consultation

Why screen for ADHD and Autism?

The ADHD and Autism Screening Consultation helps to identify ADHD and Autism symptoms and advise if a full assessment is useful.

Have you ever wondered if you have ADHD or Autism? Maybe you have recognized some of the traits but you are not sure whether you want to commit to a full assessment.  

What to expect for an ADHD and Autism Screening Consultation

Step 1: Before the Consultation

  • Complete 2 screening questionnaires on ADHD, 2 screening questionnaires on Autism and 2 Mental Mental health screening questionnaires online

  • Dr Silke Newman will analyse and review your responses prior to the consultation In this session, recommendations will be made regards further testing or other support needs, depending on your results and background. 

Step 2: Attend a 45-Minute Consultation

  • Receive feedback on your results and support needs.

  • Discuss further testing and costs if needed.

  • Consider possible alternative explanations (other mental health conditions)

  • Receive a copy of your results and how your scores compare to neuro-typical and neurodiverse peers.

Please note that only a full assessment can provide a diagnosis as the symptoms can be mimicked and overlap with other conditions.
