ADHD Online and Face to Face Assessment and Treatment for Children and Young Adults

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that can affect anyone and diagnosed at any age

It affects the person’s abilities and performance at home, school. The earlier it is diagnosed the lesser the disabilities caused by it and lower the impact on school and social performance. We can help with ADHD diagnosis and treatment.

ADHD Assessment, Diagnosis and Care for Young People at Oaktree Connect

At Oaktree Connect, private ADHD and Mental health clinic in Birmingham, St Albans and Online, we offer private ADHD assessments for children and young adults.

Our high quality mental health and ADHD services are provided by experienced top private child and adolescent psychiatrists (CAMHS). We offer consultations with an Child ADHD consultant psychiatrist, who will carry out a comprehensive assessment by speaking to the child and the parents before confirming the ADHD diagnosis, if the criteria for diagnosis are confirmed.

Adult Private ADHD Assessments

In another appointment, the psychiatrist will discuss and counsel the parents and child or young adult about the diagnosis, its implications, treatment plan including medication, talking therapy and lifestyle changes as part of the care plan. 

The medication will then be prescribed by the ADHD Child Psychiatrist following detailed discussion about the positive effects of medication and the unwanted side effects. The psychiatrist will also provide you with written information about the treatment and physical monitoring requirements.

We also offer assessment and treatment for adults with our Adult ADHD Psychiatrists after ADHD screening. Read More

My daughter and myself are patients of Dr Singh for ADHD. Both of our lives have improved significantly since our assessments and ongoing medical care. I have found the systems to book and to communicate with the team very easy. As a counsellor myself I did a fair amount of research in 2020 before choosing Oaktree as I was aware of less reputable organisations. I highly recommend their services and write this after 4 years of interactions & with my care monitored by my GP.

I met with a psychologist from Oaktree Connect last November at a time when I was struggling with severe psychological distress. We spoke at length and her intuition was that I may suffer from ADHD. Following a more comprehensive assessment, I received a formal diagnosis in December. Since i began medication in January, my mental health has significantly improved across almost all areas of my life. The difference has been night and day. The psychiatrist who treated me was highly professional, tremendously knowledgeable, sympathetic and empathetic. I am very grateful to her for all the help she has given me. I highly recommend. ps, I would also like to mention the administration staff. They were super efficient and responsive, kind, professional and made me feel like a truly valued individual. Overall, this is a team that you can have faith in. They all went the extra mile to support me. Much appreciated.

The doctor assessed my ADHD privately mid March. Something I’ve suffered with life long , I needed medication and guidance something I could not get quickly through the NHS , within 2 weeks of my 1st appointment and meeting all medical requirements , I was medicated on Methylphenidate, I have been reviewed 2 weeks later & in my consultation I was happy to report the medication my psychiatrist had prescribed had changed my life in the best way possible , I’m a functioning person again now back to mental state I never thought possible & enjoying living again , my doctor is now setting up a joint care plan between Oaktree and my GP , I could not be happier with the speediness and attentiveness, I look forward to what more life will offer me now I’m well again.

Want to know more? Here are answers to our FAQs

ADHD is a developmental disorder which means that its features are present from early childhood. ADHD affects a person’s ability to concentrate, stay still, make considered decisions, organise life at home and work. It can be disabling and has a negative impact on all aspects of functioning.

ADHD is diagnosed by semi-structured interview to establish symptoms and signs that are listed as diagnostic, in the International Code of Diseases (ICD) and Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) by an ADHD expert psychiatrist.

You and someone close to you who knows you well, will be required to complete some questionnaires to support and further confirm the diagnosis.

A medically trained psychiatrist in further specific training in ADHD assessment and treatment will carry out your diagnostic assessment will see you.

Yes, all our consultant psychiatrists are medically trained doctors and have years of experience of assessing, diagnosing and treating ADHD and other mental disorders.

Yes, all our ADHD experts are experienced doctors who can prescribe ADHD medication. They will start the medicine that suits you best and do follow ups to adjust your medication dose (also called titration), look for positive effects, any side effects and monitor the effects of the medication on your physical health.

Yes, we provide a detailed assessment report, shared with your GP within 5 working days of the assessment.

Yes, we can see you online throughout England and in person (face to face) in our ADHD clinic in Birmingham and St Albans (20 minutes train ride from Central London).

ADHD Medication controls your symptoms and is not curative. You will need to take it in the long term (like medication for any chronic conditions like high blood pressure) for the treatment to be effective.

Once your ADHD medication is stabilised, your consultant psychiatrist will write about your progress and medication to your GP surgery and request a ‘Shared care Agreement’. This means that, if accepted by the GP, you will be able to receive you medication prescriptions and physical health monitoring from the GP (through the NHS) and see our psychiatrist twice every year for follow ups.

This removes the financial burden of you having to fund more frequent follow up appointments with us and paying for the medication privately. Unfortunately, some GPs do not accept these agreements with private healthcare providers. We are then able to offer you shared care agreement with our partner GP.
