ADHD Screener
At Steps & Stones Psychology, we understand that identifying ADHD early is crucial in supporting your child’s development. Our ADHD Screener is a convenient, remote service designed to provide a comprehensive evaluation of your child’s attention and behaviour. This screener offers valuable insights and can help determine whether further in-depth assessment may be required.
What Does the Screener Involve?
Our ADHD Screener is a fully remote process, allowing you to complete the evaluation from the comfort of your home. The assessment includes the following components:
Continuous Performance Test (CPT)
The CPT is a computer-based task that objectively measures your child’s attention, focus, and impulse control. It helps identify areas where your child may be experiencing difficulties related to ADHD. The CPT is completed remotely and results are automatically recorded for analysis.
Behavioural Questionnaire
A standard behavioural questionnaire is completed by parents, and optionally by teachers or caregivers. This tool captures observations of your child’s behaviour in everyday settings, offering a real-world perspective on their attention, impulsivity, and general behaviour.
One-Hour Remote Interview
During this one-on-one interview, we will discuss your child’s history, current behaviours, and any concerns you have. This conversation provides additional context for understanding your child’s unique needs, allowing us to tailor the final report based on the information you share.
Final Report
Once the assessment is complete, you will receive a detailed report that summarises the findings from the CPT, behavioural questionnaire, and interview. This report provides a thorough overview of your child’s attention and behavioural patterns, along with recommendations for next steps if needed.
Post-Assessment Discussion
After you have received the report, we offer a post-assessment discussion to go through the results in detail. This session provides an opportunity to clarify any questions you may have and to discuss the findings and recommendations.
Why Choose the ADHD Screener?

Our screener combines objective data from the CPT with real-world insights from the behavioural questionnaire and interview, ensuring a balanced and thorough evaluation.
Guidance and Support

What Happens Next?
After completing the ADHD Screener, you will have a clearer understanding of your child’s attention and behavioural profile. If the results suggest that further assessment is needed, we will guide you through the next steps, whether that involves a formal diagnosis or additional support options.
