At Bright 360, we use a multidisciplinary approach to ADHD assessment and treatment. This means your care is not delivered by just one professional, but by a team of specialists working together, each bringing their own expertise.
This model reflects best clinical practice and ensures you receive accurate diagnosis, safe treatment, and meaningful long-term support.
Consultant Psychiatrist–Led Assessment
Your ADHD assessment at Bright 360 is led by a Consultant Psychiatrist.
This is important because:
- Psychiatrists are medical doctors
- They are qualified to diagnose ADHD
- They can prescribe and manage medication where appropriate
- They assess for co-existing conditions such as anxiety, depression, autism, or mood disorders
- They take responsibility for clinical governance and ongoing medical care
This ensures that every diagnosis is robust, medically sound, and recognised.
Psychologist Input as Part of the Multidisciplinary Team
Alongside the psychiatrist, we involve a psychologist as part of your wider care team.
Psychologists play a vital role in:
- Detailed psychological assessment
- Understanding how ADHD affects learning, work, emotions, and relationships
- Providing evidence-based therapy such as psychoeducation, coping strategies, and behavioural interventions
- Supporting patients who may not require medication, or who benefit from therapy alongside medication
Not all ADHD treatment is medication-based — and psychology is a key part of effective long-term care.
Why a Multidisciplinary Approach Matters
ADHD is a complex neurodevelopmental condition that affects far more than attention alone. A combined approach allows us to:
- Treat the whole person, not just symptoms
- Tailor care to children, adolescents, and adults
- Combine medical treatment with practical, psychological support
- Adjust treatment plans as needs change over time
This mirrors how ADHD services are delivered in specialist public and international clinics.
Ongoing Care & Aftercare
Diagnosis is just the beginning.
At Bright 360, aftercare may include:
- Medication review and monitoring (where prescribed)
- Psychological support and therapy
- Practical strategies for school, work, and daily life
- Clear communication between professionals to ensure continuity of care
