Living with undiagnosed ADHD, autism or a combination of both can be overwhelming at any age. Many people spend years feeling consistently misunderstood, exhausted and frustrated without knowing why everyday life feels harder for them than it seems for others.
At Dr Jo Gee Psychological Therapies, we offer combined ADHD and autism (ASD) assessments for adults, children and adolescents. A combined assessment allows you to explore both conditions together to provide a clearer and more accurate understanding of your or your child’s needs. We also offer access to ongoing support, including neurodivergent-informed therapy, medication (where appropriate) and guidance, all delivered by our experienced, multidisciplinary team.
We aim to offer assessments within a month of initial contact, so you’re not left waiting for answers and can get the support you or your child need.

ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are both neurodevelopmental conditions, and it’s common for traits of both to overlap and occur together. In fact, many people meet criteria for both ADHD and autism (commonly known by some as “AuDHD”), though one can sometimes mask the other.
A combined ADHD and autism assessment looks at the full picture of precisely how your brain works, rather than assessing each condition in isolation. This helps us give you a more accurate diagnosis and more effective recommendations for support.
If you’re considering a combined assessment and would like to talk things through first, we’re happy to help.
You can get in touch via phone or the contact form on our website to arrange an initial consultation and discuss whether an assessment is right for you or your child.
“From start to finish, it taught me so much about myself.”
“Thank you for challenging me when I needed it.”
“I can’t believe how much progress I’ve made in a short time.”
“After many years of therapy, you are the first person who gets me.”
Our combined ADHD & autism assessments may be helpful if:
A combined assessment allows us to explore overlapping traits carefully and reduce the risk of missed or incomplete diagnoses.
We aim to make the assessment process as clear, supportive and straightforward as possible.
We don’t rush through assessments or just tick a few boxes. We take time to understand your individual experiences in depth and consider how ADHD and autism may interact and overlap.
Once you contact us, the process includes:
With increasing awareness of neurodivergence, more people are seeking assessments, often facing long waitlists and uncertainty about what support is available. That’s why we do things differently, giving you the answers and support you need as soon as possible.
We offer a joined-up approach to care with a range of options. These include:
You don’t need to seek out different providers – assessment, medication, support and therapy can all be accessed within the same experienced team at Dr Jo Gee Psychological Therapies.
Just because you don’t receive a diagnosis doesn’t mean your difficulties aren’t valid. Instead, we’ll continue to work with you to provide:
Whatever the outcome, we don’t leave you without direction or support.
Both ADHD and autism are neurodevelopmental conditions that are linked to differences in how the brain processes information, regulates attention, manages emotions and responds to both sensory and social input.
ADHD is often associated with dopamine regulation, affecting motivation, focus and emotional regulation. Meanwhile, autism involves differences in sensory processing, communication and social understanding. When these conditions overlap, these symptoms can intensify each other, making everyday life feel particularly demanding.
There is no single cause for ADHD or autism, and neither condition is caused by upbringing or parenting. Many people, particularly women and adults, are diagnosed later in life, exhausted after spending years trying to mask and adapt themselves to try and fit in with the rest of the world.
Adults: £2,495
Children & Adolescents: £2,795
Our fees include the full assessment process, diagnostic outcome and written report. Any further treatment or support will be discussed transparently and never assumed.
Even if you’ve lived your whole life so far without any diagnosis, an assessment can still make a huge difference. A combined assessment can be life-changing, particularly for those who felt that a single diagnosis never quite explained everything.
Understanding precisely how ADHD and autism interact can help you understand yourself better and navigate a clear path forward.
A combined assessment can help in several important ways:
Many adults reach later life, having spent years blaming themselves for their struggles with focus, emotional control, social situations and burnout. A combined assessment can explain many of your long-standing patterns and help you understand your brain more fully, without shame or self-criticism.
ADHD and autism can both affect work in several different ways, from organising and focusing on tasks to communication, sensory tolerance and energy levels. A combined assessment can help you identify the reasonable adjustments you need to create a working environment that suits you best.
For children and young people, overlapping ADHD and autism is particularly challenging in a classroom and traditional school environment, especially since it impacts learning, behaviour, confidence and emotional wellbeing. A combined assessment helps schools to fully understand the extent of your child’s needs and put the right support in place to help them thrive.
Neurodivergent traits can influence the way you communicate, respond emotionally and interact with friends, partners and family members. Understanding how ADHD and autism might shape your relationships can help you avoid misunderstandings and maintain healthier relationships.
Whatever the outcome, a combined assessment can guide your next steps, from therapeutic support or medication to practical strategies that improve your day-to-day life. Even when neither ADHD nor ASD are diagnosed, assessments often provide valuable guidance and direction to improve your life.
For those with an ADHD or ASD diagnosis, assessments inform the various support options available. We don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach at Dr Jo Gee Psychological Therapies; treatment is discussed carefully and collaboratively, and all support is tailored to you as an individual.
