Young Wellbeing Hub - Neurodiversity Assessments and Support

Young Wellbeing Hub is a private, CQC-registered assessment service based online, providing diagnostic evaluations for ADHD and autism in children and young people, alongside a smaller offer for adults. The organisation is the paediatric and adolescent-focused sister service to Harley Street ADHD, which handles the adult side of the same clinical group. It has been operating for around six years and reports over 500 clients assessed and roughly 200 assessments completed annually, giving it a reasonably established track record within the private neurodevelopmental assessment sector.

The service is built around three core assessment pathways. An ADHD assessment consists of pre-assessment checks, a 90-minute clinical interview, and a written report setting out the diagnostic outcome and recommendations. An autism assessment extends this to a 120-minute clinical interview plus a 60-minute administration of the ADOS-2, a standardised observational tool used in autism diagnosis, again concluding in a full written report. Families needing both are offered a combined pathway with an extended 180-minute interview alongside the ADOS-2 component. All three pathways are stated to follow NICE guidance, which the provider says supports recognition of the resulting diagnosis by GPs and NHS services. Assessments are carried out by consultant psychiatrists and licensed therapists, all DBS-checked, which places the clinical oversight at a more senior level than some private assessment providers that rely solely on associate practitioners.

Beyond diagnosis, Young Wellbeing Hub offers follow-on medical care rather than leaving families to find this elsewhere: medication initiation appointments and separate medication review appointments are both available for those who go on to be prescribed. Art therapy is also listed as part of the wider offer, suggesting some capacity for therapeutic, non-diagnostic support alongside the clinical assessment pathway. The organisation describes its approach as person-centred, stating that it works to ensure the client’s own voice is heard through the process, and that its support extends beyond the individual to families, parents, couples, and education or workplace settings — indicating an intent to work with the systems around a child rather than treating the assessment as an isolated clinical event.

The stated target population is children and young people, with the site also referencing adults, though the bulk of the published content and the six-to-seventeen age framing point to this being primarily a paediatric and adolescent service, with adult provision more likely routed to its sister organisation. A practical draw for families is turnaround time — the provider markets itself on faster access than typical NHS waiting lists, with appointments available within weeks and at least one client account describing a diagnosis reached within two months of starting the process. As with any paid-for assessment route, families should weigh this speed against cost, since none of the pathways described are low-cost, and eligibility for any post-diagnosis NHS-funded support will depend on separate local pathways rather than on this provider directly.

No information was found on the founder or individual named clinicians, and the site’s own published content does not detail specific practitioner biographies, so this description is grounded only in what the organisation states about its structure, process and regulatory status rather than the people delivering it.
