Assessment Types
If you’re exploring neurodiversity, it’s important to understand the differences between screeners, diagnostic assessments, and medical diagnoses. This helps you choose the type of assessment or support that’s right for you.
Quick check
Screeners
Screeners are online tools, such as checklists or questionnaires, that indicate whether your experiences may align with a specific learning difficulty. While useful for initial exploration, they cannot provide a diagnosis or a detailed understanding of your cognitive profile.
In-depth evaluation
Diagnostic Assessments
Diagnostic Assessments are in-depth evaluations conducted by qualified professionals, such as HCPC-registered psychologists. These assessments provide a comprehensive understanding of your cognitive strengths, challenges, and how these impact your learning and work. Diagnostic Assessments unlock exam access arrangements, reasonable adjustments and Access to Work. This is what we offer.
medical perspective
Medical Diagnosis
Medical Diagnoses are required for ADHD, Autism and Dypraxia and are provided exclusively by psychiatrists or other qualified healthcare professionals. These are required if you wish to explore medication as a treatment option or access specific therapeutic support through the NHS.
