Autism and ADHD Diagnostic Assessments Service Launch

By 

We have launched a comprehensive, person‑centred diagnostic assessment service for adults with neurodiverse needs, led by Chartered Psychologist and Clinical Lead Dr Lucy Brierley.

The service uses gold‑standard tools; including ADOS‑2 and DIVA‑5/DIVA‑5 ID and provides a complete pathway: pre‑assessment screening, full diagnostic assessment, additional information gathering, clinical formulation and outcomes, a detailed written report, and a post‑assessment feedback session.

Dr Brierley brings extensive experience with adults who have complex and diverse needs, including training in diagnostic tools suitable for individuals with intellectual disabilities.

Enquiries can be made via the online form or by email at info@venture-people.com
