The trainer,s reputation far exceeds him. He has mastery over the course and is an incredible teacher and someone to look up to. I totally enjoyed every bit of the of the training. I am super excited about launching my ADHD career both as an assessor and an educator.
The trainer’s course was highly informative and gave me a strong baseline understanding of how to assess patients with ADHD. He clarified misconceptions I had, particularly that ADHD is not just about hyperactivity but also involves inattention. I especially appreciated how he guided us through each section of the DIVA-5 criteria, making it easy to understand. Overall, it was an excellent session that I would highly recommend to others.
Very informative session especially in terms of how to use DSM5 criteria. Explained very well even for beginners and always opportunity to ask questions if struggling with any concepts.

Truly grateful for this course. It has been extremely beneficial and informative.

All the sessions are well presented and very useful
The course was an eye opener. Self assessed as well..this is a game changer .
I benefited so much from the two courses completed with Private ADHD. Both have been brilliant at equipping me with a robust and detailed knowledge base on the diagnostic criteria, process of assessment and qualifications to be able to assess ADHD (in addition to Autism and Dyslexia) within an MDT - and with detailed insight into medication and management of ADHD, essential to the services I provide as a Neuroaffirming Consultant and Mentor: pre and post diagnostic support to individuals of all ages, and to families and schools.
I recently completed the ADHD pharmacological management course from ADHD LLC, and it was incredibly insightful and practical. A special thanks to The trainer for clearly explaining the different dose titration strategies — his approach made a complex topic easy to understand. The course has boosted my confidence in managing ADHD in adults and provided valuable tools for safe and effective prescribing. Highly recommended!

Very informative course. I did find the section on pharmacodynamics difficult to grasp and there was a lot of information about the actual medications for me to take in in the afternoon in such a short space of time. I started lagging toward the end. It would be useful if you could provide a chart that contains all the meds including what line, dose, side effects etc. Thank you
I enjoyed every bit of the training, learnt a lot about ADHD. Happy to start assessing and diagnosing people with ADHD.
