Our Children Care
(Ages 7-17)
At Mentalwell, we understand that seeking support for your child or adolescent can feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer clear and simple steps to help you manage. Our assessments and clinical services are exclusively conducted by psychiatrists who adhere to NICE guidelines. We are regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and prioritise our patients’ outcomes and wellbeing in everything we do.
Start Your Journey
Our children and adolescents' ADHD assessments offer a clear path to understanding your child's needs. It includes an array of pre-assessment questionnaires gathering information about your child's symptoms, daily experience and medical history, an online consultation with one of our expert psychiatrists, and a detailed report outlining our findings. During these video calls, our clinicians will use age-appropriate methods and questionnaires to gather information about your child's symptoms and behaviour. Following the assessment, you will receive a clear diagnosis along with a comprehensive outcome letter.

How Mentalwell Prioritises Your Child's Well-being
Finding the right support for ADHD in children can be a complex journey for parents. At Mentalwell, we believe in an ethical and transparent approach to child ADHD assessment and treatment, which is why we choose not to offer complete, bundled assessment-and-treatment packages for children under 18.
Careful Consideration of Medication for ages 7-17
For children and adolescents, the decision to pursue ADHD medication is significant and requires careful consideration. At Mentalwell, our team of expert psychiatrists meticulously examines each case individually. We assess the feasibility and effectiveness of medicated treatment for children under the age of 18 on a case-by-case basis, taking into account all aspects of your child's health, development, and specific circumstances.
Our Commitment: Child-Centred Care
This commitment to separating diagnosis from immediate treatment, and our cautious approach to medication for young people, sets Mentalwell apart. We understand that parents want the best for their children, and we believe that means ensuring every decision about their care is made with the utmost ethical consideration and clinical expertise, prioritising their long-term well-being above all else. While other providers may offer faster, bundled routes, we choose the path of considered, individualised care for your child.
Detaching Diagnosis from Treatment for True Clarity
Our core philosophy is to entirely detach the outcome of your child's ADHD diagnosis from the subsequent steps in their well-being journey. Unlike some providers who might offer a combined assessment-and-treatment package, Mentalwell focuses solely on providing an objective and thorough paediatric ADHD diagnosis. This ensures that the assessment process remains unbiased, focused purely on understanding your child's unique needs without any pre-determined pathway to medication.
