Supporting Adults on their journey to an ADHD

diagnosis with compassion, professionalism and care.

At Neurodiverse Nurse, we specialise in providing timely, accurate, and empathetic ADHD assessments for adults across the UK. Founded in 2024 by a qualified nurse prescriber with a personal understanding of the challenges of being neurodivergent, our mission is to offer an accessible, respectful, and evidence-based approach to identifying and treating ADHD in adults.

We know that seeking an ADHD diagnosis as an adult can be overwhelming, especially with long NHS waiting times and the ongoing stigma around neurodevelopmental conditions. That’s why we’re here – to provide a supportive, non-judgemental space where your experience is heard, your challenges are validated, and your needs are prioritised.

What We Offer

Our service is focused solely on ADHD in adults, ensuring you receive specialist, in-depth support throughout your journey. All assessments and treatment plans are carried out by a highly experienced clinical ADHD specialist who is accredited, knowledgeable, and passionate about neurodiversity.

Our core services include:

  • Comprehensive ADHD Assessments for Adults
    Using gold-standard, evidence-based tools to assess for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in line with national guidelines.
  • Personalised Treatment Plans
    If diagnosed, we support you with tailored treatment options including medication initiation and titration, non-medical advice, and lifestyle support.
  • Ongoing ADHD Management and Support
    Continued care for individuals with a diagnosis, including follow-up reviews, shared care pathways, and signposting to helpful resources.

We believe in collaborative care – working closely with you, and where appropriate, your GP, to ensure seamless and holistic ADHD treatment and support.

Understanding Adult ADHD

ADHD doesn’t only affect children. In fact, it’s estimated that 2.6 million adults in the UK have ADHD – but the majority remain undiagnosed. Many adults experience chronic difficulties with attention, organisation, emotional regulation and impulsivity without realising that these may be signs of a neurodevelopmental condition. Often, these traits are mislabelled as laziness, carelessness or lack of motivation, when in reality they are the result of a brain that functions differently.

ADHD in adults can present in many forms. You might struggle to stay focused in meetings, forget appointments, miss deadlines, or feel overwhelmed by seemingly simple tasks. Others may experience restlessness, mood swings, or a constant sense of underachievement – despite working twice as hard as those around them. Left unrecognised and unsupported, ADHD for adults can lead to significant challenges in daily life.

Many individuals report issues with employment stability, strained relationships, low self-esteem, financial difficulties, and co-existing mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression. There is also a higher risk of substance misuse and burnout when ADHD is not properly managed.

The good news is that with the right ADHD diagnosis and treatment, people can finally start to understand themselves – often for the first time. Receiving a diagnosis in adulthood can be life-changing, helping you to make sense of past struggles and empowering you to move forward with clarity and confidence.
