ADHD Assessment at Mind Health

How it helps

Adult ADHD assessment at Mind Health follows international evidence-based protocols (DIVA-5, NICE guidelines). We integrate self-report (ASRS, CAARS-S), collateral input (CAARS-O if available), developmental history, executive function review, and screening for common comorbidities — anxiety, mood, sleep, substance use, learning difficulties.

Outcome: a comprehensive written report suitable for your GP, psychiatrist, workplace, or NDIS support coordinator.

Who it's for

Adults who want clarity on whether ADHD explains long-standing patterns with attention, impulsivity, or executive function.

What it helps with

  • Attention & focus difficulties
  • Impulsivity
  • Executive-function challenges
  • Long-standing organisation/time problems
  • Diagnostic clarification

What to expect

Intake & history

A structured developmental and current-functioning history, plus standardised self-report (ASRS, CAARS-S).

Diagnostic interview

A DIVA-5 structured interview against DSM-5 criteria, with collateral input where available.

Feedback & report

A clear explanation of findings and a written report you can take to your GP or psychiatrist.

Fees & funding

Assessment is fee-for-service and quoted on referral. Some Medicare items may apply with a GP referral — ask us. A diagnostic report is required before a psychiatrist can consider medication options.

Common questions

Do I need a GP referral?
A referral isn't essential to book, but it helps with continuity and any Medicare items. We'll advise based on your situation.
Will I be able to access medication?
An assessment provides the diagnostic clarity a psychiatrist or GP needs — prescribing is a separate medical step we can help you navigate.
What's involved?
Standardised questionnaires, a DIVA-5 diagnostic interview, and a written feedback report — usually 2–3 sessions.
Can it be done by telehealth?
Yes — adult ADHD assessment can be conducted by secure video where appropriate.
