Thinking of getting DD assessed privately for possible ADHD - inattentive type. Who should I go for? I was initially thinking of having her seen by am Ed Psych so I can get advice on how to help her educationally as she has been falling behind for some years now and even with one to one tuition, she is still finding academics so hard and takes ages to do her work or "get" concepts. School says she will catch up but she's been like this for years and is now a preteen.
But will Ed Psych be able to assess for ADHD? Or should I seek someone else? And are there any private doctors you can recommend? We live in Cambs and can travel quite a bit.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
