Understanding Our Fees
Transparent and Value-Driven Support
We believe that world-class ADHD care shouldn’t be out of reach. That’s why we’ve built a practice where the investment goes entirely into what matters — the expertise of our practitioners and the quality of your care.
ADHD assessment and treatment is a highly specialised field. The clinicians at The ADHD Specialists bring exceptional levels of training, experience and clinical responsibility, and our fees reflect that. This isn’t general therapy — it’s specialist care delivered by people who have dedicated their careers to understanding ADHD from every angle, including lived experience.
As someone who received my own ADHD diagnosis and has spent 36 years in mental health, I built this practice on a simple principle: expert care, delivered with honesty and without unnecessary overhead. You won’t be paying for a prestigious postcode. You will be getting some of the most experienced ADHD specialists in the country.
