Harmony Minds

Our Mission

Gold-standard assessments, accessible to everyone

Too many people are waiting years for an autism or ADHD assessment on the NHS. At Harmony Minds, we believe that should not be the case. As a CQC-registered Right to Choose provider, we are committed to delivering gold-standard neurodevelopmental assessments to anyone who needs them — with or without the ability to pay privately.

Regulated by the Care Quality Commission NHS Right to Choose provider

You have the right to choose your provider.

If you are registered with an NHS GP in England, you can ask to be referred to Harmony Minds for a free ASD or ADHD assessment — bypassing your local NHS waiting list, which can be years long.

No Long Waits

NHS waiting lists for autism and ADHD assessments can stretch to several years. Right to Choose lets you come to us instead — often within weeks.

NHS-Funded

Right to Choose assessments are fully funded by the NHS. There is no cost to you whatsoever — the same high-quality service, at no charge.

Same Gold Standard

Whether you come to us privately or via Right to Choose, you receive identical assessments using ADOS-2, ADI-R, and the same specialist clinical team.

CQC Registered

We are registered with the Care Quality Commission, meeting the same regulatory standards as NHS specialist services — quality you can trust.

NHS Right to Choose

Access assessments through your GP

As an approved Right to Choose provider, you can access our ASD and ADHD assessments through the NHS — at no cost to you.

Common Questions

Quick answers about Right to Choose

Does Right to Choose cost me anything?

+
No. If you are referred via the NHS Right to Choose pathway, your assessment is fully funded by your local Integrated Care Board (ICB). There are no deposits, fees, or hidden costs at any stage.

Can I use Right to Choose if I'm already on a local NHS waiting list?

+
Yes. Being on a local waiting list does not exclude you from exercising your Right to Choose. You can ask your GP to refer you to Harmony Minds at any point, and you can withdraw from your local waiting list once your assessment is underway.

What if my GP doesn't know about Right to Choose?

+
This is common. You can download our GP letter template above and take it to your appointment — it explains the Right to Choose entitlement and includes our referral details. If your GP still declines, contact us and we will advise you on next steps.

How quickly can I be seen?

+
Once we receive your GP referral, we aim to contact you within 5 working days. Assessment appointments are typically available within a few weeks — significantly faster than most local NHS waiting lists.

Our Team

A specialist team under one roof

Our multidisciplinary team brings together three distinct areas of expertise — combining medical, psychological, and specialist neurodevelopmental knowledge to deliver assessments of the highest clinical quality.

Clinical Psychologists

Our clinical psychologists lead our neurodevelopmental assessments for children and adults. They bring a person-centred, evidence-based approach to every assessment.

Consultant Psychiatrists

Our consultant psychiatrists bring medical diagnostic expertise and are responsible for clinical oversight of all our assessments, with specialist experience in adult and child neurodevelopmental conditions and co-occurring mental health presentations.

Neurodevelopmental Practitioners

Our neurodevelopmental practitioners come from a range of professional backgrounds, including registered mental health nurses, speech and language therapists, and social workers. They play a central role in conducting structured observations, administering standardised assessments, and providing post-diagnosis support.

Resources

Guides & useful information

Helpful reading to support you at every stage — whether you're considering an assessment, preparing for a GP conversation, or adjusting to a new diagnosis.

Right to Choose

How to talk to your GP about a Right to Choose referral

Many people feel anxious about raising neurodevelopmental concerns with their GP. This guide walks you through what to say, what to bring, and what your rights are — including what to do if your GP seems unfamiliar with the scheme.

ASD

What to expect from an autism assessment

An honest, step-by-step guide to the autism assessment process — from your first appointment through to receiving your report. Includes what the ADOS-2 involves and how to prepare yourself or your child.

ADHD

ADHD in women and girls — why it often goes undetected

ADHD presents differently in women and girls, and is frequently missed or misdiagnosed as anxiety or depression. This guide explores the signs to look out for, the impact of masking, and how to access support.

Post-Diagnosis

Life after diagnosis — making sense of a new understanding

Receiving a diagnosis can bring relief, grief, confusion — often all at once. This guide explores what the weeks and months after a neurodevelopmental diagnosis often feel like, and what practical next steps you can take.

Workplace

Disclosing a diagnosis at work — your rights and options

You are never obligated to disclose your diagnosis to an employer, but doing so can open the door to reasonable adjustments that make a real difference. This guide covers what adjustments you can ask for and how to start the conversation.

Assessment

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Assessment

Compassionate, comprehensive assessments for children and adults — helping you understand yourself and access the right support.

What is an ASD Assessment?

An autism assessment is a thorough clinical evaluation carried out by trained and experienced clinicians. It explores social communication, sensory processing, behavioural patterns, and development history. There is no single test for autism — we use a combination of structured clinical interviews, direct observation, and standardised tools to build a full picture.

At Harmony Minds, we use gold-standard instruments including the ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule) and the ADI-R (Autism Diagnostic Interview – Revised).

Who is it for?

  • Children from age 5 upwards who may be showing signs of autism
  • Teenagers and young adults seeking clarity about their social and sensory experiences
  • Adults who have never been assessed but have long wondered if they might be autistic
  • Women and girls, who are often underdiagnosed due to masking behaviours

What does the assessment involve?

  • Standardised questionnaires — completed by you, your family, and (for children) school where relevant
  • ADI-R — a detailed background history interview with you and/or an informant
  • ADOS-2 observation — a structured, play-based and conversational observation session
  • MDT discussion — our multidisciplinary team meet to review all information gathered and reach a considered clinical formulation
  • Feedback session — a dedicated meeting to discuss the findings and an opportunity for you to ask questions
  • Written diagnostic report — you will receive a comprehensive report with the outcome within 4 weeks of your final appointment, suitable for schools, employers, and other services

NHS Right to Choose for ASD

Available through the Right to Choose pathway

You can access an ASD assessment through the NHS Right to Choose scheme if you are registered with an NHS GP in England. This means the assessment is fully funded by the NHS — at no cost to you. Simply ask your GP to refer you to Harmony Minds as your preferred provider.

Frequently Asked Questions — ASD Assessment

How long does an ASD assessment take?

+
The full assessment typically spans 2–3 appointments across 2 weeks. Each appointment lasts between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. You will receive a written report within 4 weeks of your final appointment.

Can I self-refer, or do I need a GP referral?

+
You can self-refer for a private assessment at any time. For an NHS-funded assessment via Right to Choose, you will need your GP to send us a referral letter.

What happens if I receive an autism diagnosis?

+
A diagnosis opens the door to understanding and support. We offer post-diagnosis support sessions to help you make sense of your results and connect with appropriate services. Our team will guide you through every step.

What if the assessment does not result in a diagnosis?

+
A non-diagnostic outcome is still valuable. Our report will explain our clinical findings in full, highlight any areas of difficulty, and recommend appropriate next steps. Many people find clarity and relief even without a formal diagnosis.

Are assessments available for children?

+
Yes. We assess children from age 5 upwards. A parent or carer interview forms a central part of the assessment. We work collaboratively with families and, where appropriate, gather information from school.

Will my assessment be confidential?

+
Yes. Everything shared with us is confidential. If you are referred via Right to Choose, your report will be shared with your GP electronically. We will also need to break confidentiality if there is a serious risk to safety — this is something our clinician will explain to you at the beginning of your assessment.

Can autism present differently in women and girls?

+
Yes — this is well recognised clinically. Women and girls often develop strategies to "mask" or camouflage autistic traits, which can make diagnosis harder and lead to delayed identification. Our clinicians are experienced in recognising the different ways autism presents across genders and ages, and we take a thorough, nuanced approach that does not rely on outdated stereotypes.

NHS Right to Choose — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the NHS Right to Choose scheme?

+
The NHS Right to Choose is a legal right under the NHS Constitution (and supported by the NHS Choice Framework) that allows patients in England to choose a specific provider for certain NHS-funded assessments and treatments. For neurodevelopmental assessments (ASD and ADHD), eligible patients can choose to receive their assessment from an approved independent provider — such as Harmony Minds — rather than waiting for their local NHS service. The assessment is fully funded by the NHS at no cost to the patient.

Am I eligible for a Right to Choose ASD assessment?

+
You are likely eligible if you are registered with an NHS GP in England and your GP agrees that a referral for autism assessment is clinically appropriate. Right to Choose applies to adults and children. It does not currently apply to patients in Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland, who should contact us to discuss alternative options.

How do I start the Right to Choose process for an ASD assessment?

+
Step 1: Book an appointment with your GP and explain your concerns about autism.

Step 2: Tell your GP you would like to exercise your Right to Choose and be referred to Harmony Minds as your preferred provider.

Step 3: Give your GP our contact details — admin@harmonyminds.co.uk or 0333 050 0240. They will send us a referral letter.

Step 4: We will contact you within 5 working days of receiving your referral to introduce ourselves and begin the assessment process.

If your GP is unfamiliar with Right to Choose, you can refer them to NHS England guidance. We are happy to provide a template letter you can take to your appointment.

What if my GP refuses to refer me?

+
We would encourage you to have an open conversation with your GP about the clinical rationale for a referral and why you feel an assessment is appropriate. You also have the option of self-referring for a private assessment with us at any time.

Is there a waiting list for Right to Choose assessments?

+
One of the key advantages of Right to Choose is that you are not tied to your local NHS waiting list, which can be several years. We currently have a very short waiting list — under 3 months. Once we receive your referral, we will confirm your expected timeframe based on current availability.

Is a Right to Choose assessment the same quality as an NHS assessment?

+
Yes. As a CQC-registered provider, we follow the same NHS guidelines and meet the same regulatory standards as NHS services. Our clinicians hold equivalent professional qualifications and our diagnostic reports are accepted by NHS services, schools, employers, and other statutory bodies.

Will I receive the same report as with a private assessment?

+
Yes. The assessment process and written report are identical whether you come to us privately or via Right to Choose. You will receive a comprehensive diagnostic report that you own and can use to access support from schools, employers, local authorities, and health services.

Can children access Right to Choose for an ASD assessment?

+
Yes. The Right to Choose pathway is available for children as well as adults. The referral would be made by your child's GP, and a parent or carer would need to consent to and participate in the assessment process. We assess children from age 5 upwards.

What information should my GP include in the referral?

+
The referral letter should include the patient's name, date of birth, NHS number, GP surgery details, a brief description of the presenting concerns, and confirmation that this is a Right to Choose referral to Harmony Minds. We can provide your GP with a referral template if needed — please contact us and we'll send it across.

How is the assessment funded under Right to Choose?

+
The cost of your assessment is billed directly to your local Integrated Care Board (ICB) by Harmony Minds. You will not be charged anything. There are no hidden costs, deposits, or fees required at any stage of the Right to Choose pathway.

Assessment

ADHD Assessment

Clear, thorough ADHD evaluations for children and adults — helping you understand your attention profile and access meaningful support.

What is an ADHD Assessment?

An ADHD assessment evaluates attention span, impulse control, hyperactivity, and executive functioning. ADHD can present very differently from person to person — particularly in women, girls, and adults — so our assessment gathers information from multiple sources and looks beyond surface-level behaviour.

We use internationally recognised rating scales such as the Conners' Rating Scales, the DIVA-5 (for adults), structured clinical interview, and developmental history.

Signs we assess for

  • Difficulty sustaining attention, particularly on non-preferred tasks
  • Frequently losing items, forgetting appointments, or missing deadlines
  • Restlessness, fidgeting, or difficulty staying seated
  • Acting or speaking impulsively
  • Emotional dysregulation and low frustration tolerance
  • Difficulty organising tasks and managing time
  • Hyperfocus on areas of high interest

What the assessment includes

  • Standardised rating scales — completed by the client, parent, or teacher as appropriate
  • Clinical interview — detailed history of symptoms, across childhood and adulthood
  • Rule-out process — to ensure symptoms are not better explained by anxiety, sleep difficulties, or other conditions
  • MDT discussion — our multidisciplinary team meet to review all information gathered and reach a considered clinical formulation
  • Feedback session — a dedicated meeting to discuss the findings and an opportunity for you to ask questions
  • Comprehensive written report — you will receive a comprehensive report with the outcome within 4 weeks of your final appointment, suitable for employers, universities, and other services

NHS Right to Choose for ADHD

Available through the Right to Choose pathway

If you are registered with a GP in England, you have the right to choose which provider carries out your ADHD assessment. Ask your GP to refer you to Harmony Minds. Once we receive your referral, we'll be in touch within 5 working days to arrange your assessment — completely free of charge to you.

Treatment & medication support

ADHD is a condition for which medication can make a significant positive difference for many people. Following your assessment, our consultant psychiatrist is able to initiate medication where this is clinically appropriate and something you wish to explore.

We also offer shared care arrangements with your NHS GP. Once your medication has been established and reviewed, your GP can continue ongoing prescribing under a shared care agreement. This keeps your regular doctor fully informed and involved, while ensuring you have specialist support at the start of your treatment.

Please note: medication is one option, not an automatic outcome of diagnosis. It is always discussed in the context of your individual circumstances, preferences, and clinical needs. Psychological and behavioural strategies are always explored alongside or instead of medication, and the decision remains entirely yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does an ADHD assessment take?

+
An ADHD assessment typically involves 1–2 clinical appointments, each lasting around 1.5 to 2 hours. You will receive a written report within 3–4 weeks of your final appointment.

Can I be assessed for both ADHD and autism at the same time?

+
Yes. Many people have both autism and ADHD (sometimes called AuDHD). We offer combined assessments and can assess for both conditions concurrently. Please mention this when you contact us so we can plan your assessment accordingly.

I'm an adult — is it too late to be diagnosed?

+
Absolutely not. ADHD is a lifelong condition, and many adults reach us in their 30s, 40s, 50s or beyond. A diagnosis at any age can bring profound clarity and open up access to medication, workplace support, and therapeutic guidance.

What happens after diagnosis?

+
We offer post-diagnosis support sessions to help you understand your diagnosis, develop coping strategies, and plan next steps. We can also write supporting letters for your workplace or university — these are available at an additional cost.

Is there a waiting list for Right to Choose assessments?

+
One of the key advantages of Right to Choose is that you are not tied to your local NHS waiting list, which can be several years. We currently have a very short waiting list — under 3 months. Once we receive your referral, we will confirm your expected timeframe based on current availability.

Will my assessment be confidential?

+
Yes. Everything shared with us is confidential. If you are referred via Right to Choose, your report will be shared with your GP electronically. We will also need to break confidentiality if there is a serious risk to safety — this is something our clinician will explain to you at the beginning of your assessment.

How do I get a Right to Choose referral?

Book an appointment with your GP and ask to be referred for an ADHD assessment. State that you wish to exercise your Right to Choose and would like to be referred to Harmony Minds. Our contact details are: admin@harmonyminds.co.uk / 0333 050 0240. Your GP will send the referral to us directly.

What if my GP refuses to refer me?

+
We would encourage you to have an open conversation with your GP about the clinical rationale for a referral and why you feel an assessment is appropriate. You also have the option of self-referring for a private assessment with us at any time.

Our child and adolescent psychology service offers specialist assessment and therapy for children from age 5 through to young adults aged 18+. We work with young people experiencing a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and developmental difficulties.

Therapy for Adults

Individual therapy for adults

Our adult therapy service offers confidential, one-to-one psychological support for adults facing a wide range of mental health or life challenges.

We offer CBT, ACT, psychodynamic therapy, EMDR, and integrative approaches tailored to your individual needs and goals.

Therapy for Couples

Strengthening relationships

Couples therapy at Harmony Minds provides a safe, facilitated space for partners to explore difficulties, improve communication, and deepen their connection.

Working with the whole family system

Family therapy takes a systemic approach, exploring how patterns, roles, and communication styles within the family affect each member's wellbeing.

Sessions may involve the whole family or selected members, depending on what is most helpful at any given stage of the work.

Living with a Health Condition

Living with a Health Condition

Living with a chronic illness, pain condition, or significant physical health challenge affects every part of life — including mental health, relationships, and identity. Our therapists specialise in this intersection.

We use ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), CBT, and compassion-focused approaches to help you live as fully as possible alongside your condition.

EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR works on the understanding that traumatic or distressing memories can become "stuck" in the brain in a way that keeps them feeling raw and present, even years after the event. During EMDR, you focus on a troubling memory or feeling while simultaneously following a series of side-to-side eye movements (or other forms of bilateral stimulation such as taps or sounds). This process appears to help the brain reprocess the memory so it loses its emotional charge — much like what naturally happens during REM sleep.

Unlike some talking therapies, EMDR does not require you to describe your experiences in detail or spend long periods reliving them. Many people find this makes it more accessible, particularly for trauma that feels difficult to talk about.

What can EMDR help with?

  • Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and complex trauma
  • Childhood trauma and adverse experiences
  • Anxiety, panic disorders, and phobias
  • Grief and bereavement
  • Low self-esteem rooted in past experiences
  • Medical trauma and distressing health experiences
  • Trauma related to neurodivergent experiences (e.g. bullying, masking, late diagnosis)

Is EMDR available remotely?

Yes. Our EMDR sessions are primarily delivered online via a secure video platform. Research supports the effectiveness of online EMDR, and many clients find it more accessible. Face-to-face sessions can be arranged at our London location in some circumstances.

Support

Post-Diagnosis Support

Receiving a diagnosis is just the beginning. Our post-diagnosis support helps you make sense of your results and build a fulfilling life with new understanding.

Whether you've recently received an autism or ADHD diagnosis — with us or elsewhere — our post-diagnosis support sessions provide a dedicated space to process your feelings, understand your profile, and plan meaningful next steps.

Understanding your diagnosis

We explore your report together, answer your questions, and help you make sense of what the diagnosis means for your daily life, relationships, and sense of self.

Practical strategies & coping tools

Evidence-based support for the challenges that come with your diagnosis — including executive functioning, emotional regulation, sensory processing, and workplace or education adjustments.

Medication & onward support

Where appropriate, our consultant psychiatrists can initiate medication and arrange shared care with your GP — these services are available at an additional cost. We also provide letters for employers, universities, and benefit applications, which are also available at an additional cost.

Group support & mental health

We can offer group sessions where you can meet and connect with others who share similar experiences — a valuable space for peer support, shared understanding, and reducing isolation. We also work with co-occurring mental health difficulties that can often accompany a diagnosis, such as anxiety, low mood, and low self-esteem, helping you to understand and manage these alongside your neurodevelopmental profile.

Post-diagnosis sessions — flexible and affordable

Post-diagnosis support sessions are offered in blocks of 4 or 6 sessions, or as a single consultation. Sessions are delivered primarily online via secure video call, with face-to-face appointments available at our London location in some circumstances. Please contact us to discuss what would be most helpful for you.

We process your personal data on the basis of contract (providing services you have requested), legal obligation (regulatory and clinical record-keeping requirements), and, for special category health data, the provision of healthcare and treatment under UK GDPR Article 9(2)(h).

How long we keep your data

Clinical records are retained for a minimum of 8 years from the end of treatment in line with NHS and professional body guidance (or until a child reaches the age of 25, whichever is longer). Contact and administrative data is retained for 3 years after your last contact with us, unless you request earlier deletion where this is lawfully possible.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to access your personal data, correct inaccurate data, request erasure where lawfully possible, object to processing, and request a copy of your data in a portable format. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at admin@harmonyminds.co.uk. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

Cookies

This website uses only essential functional cookies. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies and do not share browsing data with third parties.

Contact us about privacy

If you have any questions about how we handle your personal data, please contact us at admin@harmonyminds.co.uk or call 0333 050 0240.

Complaints Policy

We take every concern seriously. Here is how to raise one and what to expect.

Our commitment

Harmony Minds is committed to providing high-quality, person-centred care. If something has not met your expectations, we want to know. Raising a concern or complaint will not affect your care in any way, and we will treat everything you tell us with respect and confidentiality.

How to raise a concern

In the first instance, please contact us directly so we can try to resolve things as quickly as possible:

  • By email: admin@harmonyminds.co.uk
  • By phone: 0333 050 0240
  • In writing: Please address correspondence to the Practice Manager, Harmony Minds

Please include your name, contact details, the nature of your concern, and any relevant dates. We will acknowledge your complaint within 3 working days.

What happens next

We aim to investigate all complaints thoroughly and provide a full written response within 20 working days. For complex matters, we may need longer — we will keep you informed of progress throughout. Where possible, we will offer a meeting to discuss your concerns in person or by video call.
