Assessments are structured around recognised UK clinical guidance, including NICE where applicable, and reports can be shared with GPs and NHS services.
A private diagnosis is not automatically accepted by every NHS service. Decisions about NHS prescribing, shared care, further assessment or treatment remain with the receiving GP, clinician or local NHS service. In England, Right to Choose is a separate NHS funded pathway and is not the same as a private self funded assessment.
The heart and tree mark reflects the many parts of a person’s life that can matter in assessment and therapy: development, family, emotions, relationships, environment, interests, strengths and practical needs.
The strongest plan is one that connects those parts clearly and turns understanding into useful next steps for adults, children and families.
