Insightful Minds

Do you think you or your child may have some SEN needs? Are you frustrated by the long NHS waits for assessments? Do you just want to get the assessment completed?

If yes, have a chat with Liz about having an assessment for Autism, Dyslexia or ADHD. This can be completed within a month of enquiry, sometimes sooner. By having a private assessment you will access additional support quicker for you or your child at school, University or in the Workplace. Being supported quicker will boost your confidence, reduce overwhelm and ease stress and anxiety.

I deliver these assessments through another company which moderates my work. If you would like to have an initial 15 minute chat, get in touch liz@insightfulminds.co.uk. After our chat, I will refer you to the assessment company to share more about the assessment process, payments and to answer any specialist questions you may have if you have decided to proceed.

What is the difference between an assessment and a diagnosis?

Both the assessment and the diagnosis for ADHD and Autism use the same NICE approved Gold Standard Tests. When an assessment or diagnosis is carried out for an individual they will be given a full assessment report from the one to one assessment. This assessment report is used by schools, colleges, Universities and the workplace to put in place reasonable adjustments to ensure the neurodivergent individual has the same opportunities as everyone else and can thrive. A diagnosis is only needed by an individual when medication needs to be prescribed. A diagnosis can only be carried out by a psychiatrist. When you opt for diagnosis, you will get an assessment report and this will include a diagnosis.

When you opt for an assessment, you will get an assessment report which states that you are within the threshold for ADHD or Autism.
