The Pathway

Getting diagnosed with ADHD should not depend on how good you are at forms, admin, chasing or explaining yourself.

 
 

CAP changed the route, not the clinical standard. Conversation first. No 30 page forms. Clear costs. And if you already have a diagnosis, you do not start again. Whether you are looking for an answer or deciding what comes after one, you move through the pathway one stage at a time.

Which route are you?

There are two ways into the pathway.

Route 1

I don’t have an ADHD diagnosis

For adults who think ADHD may explain something about how they have been living, but haven't had a formal assessment.

Start with the free screener. If you want to continue, you can book a £50 call directly with a private clinician to go through your results, ask any questions and discuss whether you want to move forward with an ADHD assessment.

START THE FREE SCREENER

Route 2

I already have an ADHD diagnosis

For adults with a formal diagnosis from another provider who want to explore medication or move their treatment forward.

Start with a £50 call with a private clinician to talk through your existing diagnosis and whether it can be used for the treatment pathway. If it is appropriate to continue, they’ll explain the next stage and your medication options.

How it works

If you don’t have a diagnosis:

01 — Start with the screener | FREE

A short first step to help organise what you have been experiencing. It isn’t a diagnosis and it doesn’t commit you to an assessment. It gives you somewhere sensible to begin.

02 — Talk it through | £50

A conversation with a specialist clinician about your screener answers, the pathway and what happens next. You can ask questions, talk through anything you are unsure about and decide whether you want to continue to a full assessment.

03 — Full ADHD Assessment | £750

A one-to-one assessment with a specialist ADHD clinician. Rather than completing another long test on your own, you talk through how things are now and how they have been across your life, building the clinical picture together.

04 — What happens next | £150

A follow-up conversation about your assessment outcome and what, if anything, you want to do next. If medication is something you want to explore, your options are discussed here. If you begin medication, your first month’s prescription issuing and review are included.

How it works

If you already have a diagnosis:

01 — Existing diagnosis call | £50

A clinician talks through when and how you were diagnosed and the documentation you have. This first conversation helps establish whether your existing diagnosis is suitable for the treatment pathway before you commit to the next stage.

02 — Existing diagnosis assessment | £500

If it is appropriate to continue, your clinician reviews your diagnosis and relevant history in more detail and talks through your medication options. If treatment is clinically appropriate and you decide to begin, preparation of your first month’s prescription is included.

03 — Monthly medication review | £95

While your medication is being established, you have regular reviews with your clinician to discuss how it is working, any side effects and whether anything needs adjusting.

04 — Ongoing care / shared care

Once treatment is stable, the next step depends on what you need. This may mean continuing privately, requesting shared care with your GP, or booking an extended review if something changes.

Voices from the Pathway

  • Hi Hannah. I do hope you see this. I followed your sobriety journey over on TikTok which I found inspirational. My brother sadly took his own life in 2021, he was battling a cocaine addiction whilst trying to get an ADHD diagnosis but was unfortunately being prescribed antidepressants which in the end couldn’t save him. After following your journey and hitting burnout myself, I decided to use your Class A People ADHD assessment service and was diagnosed with combined ADHD in January. I’m still in titration but Elvanse has changed my life in so many ways and I just wanted to thank you. I live in Scotland where there are no adult assessments, not even a waiting list. So to be contacted and assessed in the space of a week was amazing. Although my brother was failed by the NHS I think he’d be proud that I’ve been able get my diagnosis. Keep doing what your doing, even on those challenging days

  • Hey Hannah, I just wanted to reach out to thank you for everything you are doing to make it more accessible for people like me to get the answers they need. I have just had my assessment with Dr Bhella (who is amazing) and I’ve been diagnosed combined ADHD. I felt like someone actually listened to me for the first time in 10+ years of being backwards and forwards in the mental health system. I finally have a starting point to understand myself better and work on what works best for me to build a better future for myself and the people around me. I came across your page at the beginning of the year and really related to your addiction struggles and you inspired me to get myself clean and sober (a journey which is not for the weak lol) but I have been in sobriety since March. Thank you so much for helping me change my life. You and your team are absolutely amazing x

    Em, Pathway

  • Hi Hannah, I’ve hit rock bottom today through substance misuse and ready for the change in my life that is needed. Was searching for videos on tik tok regarding the link between adhd and substance abuse as this is my cycle of life currently which I know is shit. And just want to say THANK YOU! I’ve just done the adhd referral and I’m booked and paid and ready for two weeks time. I can’t believe it. I’m finally going to get the answers I need and the meds to enable me to be the best version of myself. So thank you for making that seem less, I was skeptical not going to lie but within 20 minutes the doctor was calling me for a chat. I’ve actually followed your journey from the very beginning of you becoming sober and clean from coke. It’s inspiring to watch. I can imagine it’s been hard but not harder than the cycle before. Here’s to hopefully a new looking future for me. But thank you! xxx

    Monica, Pathway

  • What you've built is nothing short of a miracle. Honestly. The whole thing has been completely firctionless. Even after i ghosted the Dr for a few days out of fear, the conversation just picked right back up where it was left with zero judgement. A genuine chat for the diagnosis too. Not a tick box exercise. Total dream and starting titration straight away. Than you, from the bottom of my heart

    — Megan, Pathway

  • I wanted to say a massive thank you, I filled out the screening questions 2 weeks ago and now have my diagnosis, I am now looking forward to my retirement instead of dreading it, this is a fantastic service.

    — Violet, Pathway

  • Hi Hannah. Hope you are doing well. I just wanted to say that i have used your adhd programma to get diagnosed after years of struggling. It was so quick and simple! Thank you so much for offering this and all your adhd content - it really has helped me so much. You are amazing and absolutely smashing it! So much love

    — Mia, Pathway

  • Just had my assessment done through your service! Thank You ! I did message you on insta when i hit rock bottom about 4 weeks ago. Feeling a huge relief knowing that i do have ADHD and i'm not crazy. Would recommend using the service to anyone. So thank you Hannah!

    — Sarah, Pathway

  • Hi Hannah. I just wanted to send you a private message to say thank you for setting up the adhd thing, I paid about 3 days ago, and one of your lovely dr's has just called me to tell me that i've passes 6/6 on the screener questions so i'm going to go on and do the assessment, but i wanted to say thank you. I feel like a big weight's been lifted. I've been suspicious for a while, but for somebody to actually quantify it, it kind of makes more sense and means a lot. So thank you.

    — James, Pathway

  • Hi Hannah cant thank you enough diagnosed last week through, class a people. I always believed it, but to have a diagnosis is such a fucking relief, Your guides are the hug and reality check i needed. i downloaded them twice, a friend in my ear talking real. You're a proper darling incredible You've walked the walk, and definitely talked the talk. I'm now a recovering long term addict of drugs and alcohol amongst others. I've lost my family, houses, business, dignity. The masks are gone I now have clarity in my madness freedom. Don't stop being your irrepressible self. Sorry I usually don't message but had to thank you

FAQs

Everything you need to know about pathway

  • Once you’ve completed the screener, you’ll be able to see the available £50 clinician-call appointments and choose a time that works for you. Availability will vary, but you can see exactly what’s available before you book.

  • No. The conversation comes first deliberately, so you can speak to a clinician before committing to the cost of a full assessment. If you decide not to continue, you don’t have to.

  • Yes. There is a separate route for adults who already have a recognised ADHD diagnosis and want to explore treatment. You won’t be asked to repeat the diagnostic pathway unnecessarily.

  • No. CAP is for adults, and you are treated as one. The assessment is a detailed conversation about your own history and experience. We do not require a parent or guardian to validate it.

  • No. A diagnosis does not commit you to medication. If you are diagnosed, you can choose whether you want to explore treatment through the pathway. There is no obligation to continue.

  • Yes. If you reach the treatment stage and want to explore shared care, the clinician can write to your GP on your behalf and make the request. There is a separate fee for this service, which is shown before you proceed. Shared care is ultimately decided by your GP practice, so it cannot be guaranteed, but the option is there if you want us to pursue it.

  • Your assessment is a one-to-one conversation with a clinician about your life, history and the things that have brought you here. It isn’t a test you need to prepare for or a set of answers you need to get right. The clinical standard remains the same; the experience is designed to feel like a conversation rather than an exercise in proving yourself.
