As Seen On
At Core ADHD, our mission is to help you as a high-achieving, deeply capable professional to finally understand how your brain works—not blame yourself for how it doesn’t.
We provide NHS-informed ADHD assessments and expert CBT-based coaching designed for those who have spent years masking their struggles, doubting their capabilities, and wondering, “Why can’t I just get it together?”
Through compassionate support, evidence-based tools, and a clear path forward, we help you move from feeling overwhelmed, to feeling free from questioning and doubting yourself over every important (and unimportant) area in your life.
Because when you understand your ADHD, you don’t just cope anymore—you finally start to live up to your potential and thrive.
Core-ADHD was created to meet a growing need: clear, evidence-based ADHD assessments and treatment for those who want to finally fully understand themselves, and to feel change is possible.
You might be successful on paper, but feel like you’re constantly under-delivering on your potential. You may be burning out from the constant effort to stay on top of everything. And you may be wondering why simple tasks take so much effort, or why your mind never quite slows down. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you’re in the right place
- so your assessment and clinical report are valid for GPs, occupational health, and workplace accommodations.
