ADHD Assessment for Women
Female ADHD diagnoses have surged 694% in five years. But most women still wait years for answers — because ADHD in women doesn't look like the stereotype.
Why ADHD is missed in women
ADHD research has historically focused on hyperactive boys. But ADHD in women often presents as inattentiveness, emotional dysregulation, and internalised struggles rather than visible hyperactivity. Women are also more likely to develop sophisticated masking strategies that hide their symptoms from others.
Does this sound like you?
- You've been told you're 'too emotional' or 'too sensitive'
- You struggle with time management despite being intelligent and capable
- You feel like you're constantly performing just to appear 'normal'
- Hormonal changes (periods, pregnancy, perimenopause) make everything worse
- You were a 'good girl' at school — but it took enormous effort
- You've been diagnosed with anxiety or depression, but the treatment didn't fully help
Our approach
Our assessing psychiatrists have specific experience in diagnosing ADHD in women. They understand the unique ways ADHD presents in females, the impact of hormones on symptoms, and the common misdiagnoses that women receive before finally getting the right answer.
“The assessment is the same clinically rigorous process as our standard adult assessment. The difference is that our clinicians are specifically attuned to the female presentation of ADHD — the masking, the emotional impact, the hormonal connections.”
