Choosing the Right Practitioner for You

A short guide to help you decide which clinician and which pathway is the right fit for you.

Psychotherapists and Psychologists

Psychotherapists and psychologists provide support for a wide range of emotional, behavioural and mental health concerns. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties or trauma, our team can help.

  • Trainee Psychotherapists and Trainee Psychologists in Doctoral Training offer an affordable way to access therapy while still receiving expert guidance under supervision.
  • Psychotherapists are trained in talk therapy techniques to support emotional healing and personal growth.
  • Senior Psychotherapists bring years of experience and may specialise in specific therapeutic approaches.
  • Psychologists are trained in evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and provide in-depth assessments and interventions.

Psychiatrists and Consultant Psychiatrists

If you require medical support for mental health conditions, including medication, a psychiatrist or consultant psychiatrist may be the right choice. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialise in diagnosing and treating mental health disorders, and can prescribe medication. Consultant Psychiatrists have extensive experience in managing complex mental health conditions, providing expert assessments and overseeing long-term treatment strategies.

For a full list of our consultant psychiatrists and their areas of expertise, see our Psychiatrists page.

Choosing Your Assessment Pathway

Our assessment pathways for ADHD, autism and learning difficulties include options led by PSI-registered Psychologists, Multidisciplinary Teams of 2 to 3 practitioners, and Consultant Psychiatrists. The right pathway depends on whether medication may be relevant, the level of clinical detail needed, and your budget.

Each pathway produces a diagnostic outcome valid for shared care with your GP, school applications including DARE and RACE supports, workplace accommodations, and submission to the HSE. The complimentary 10-minute phone chat is the easiest way to understand which option fits.

For more on the assessment process itself (what the appointment involves, the tools used, the wait times), see our ADHD Assessment and Autism Assessment service pages.

Flexible and Confidential Support

We understand that everyone's schedule and needs are different. That is why we offer both in-person and online sessions, allowing you to choose the format that suits you best. All appointments are 100% confidential.

If you are unsure which practitioner is right for you, contact us today and our team will guide you towards the most suitable option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our fees, payment options and what to expect.

Adult ADHD assessments range from €550 (MDT pathway with diagnostic letter) to €850 (Consultant Psychiatrist with extensive report). Specifically:

  • MDT pathway: €400 assessment fee plus €150 letter or €350 report (total €550 or €750)
  • PSI-registered Psychologist: €800 (report included)
  • Consultant Psychiatrist: €650 (with letter) or €850 (with report)

Child and adolescent ADHD assessments include the report in the price and range from €605 (MDT) to €1,200 (Comprehensive Assessment with IQ test). The €325 QbCheck technology test can be added at any pathway to support diagnostic accuracy.

Adult ADHD and autism assessment fees cover the clinical assessment itself: the interview, structured diagnostic tools, clinical formulation and any pre-assessment questionnaires. Following diagnosis you also need a written outcome, which is either a brief diagnostic letter or a detailed diagnostic report. Depending on the pathway, this is either included in the price or charged separately:

  • On the MDT pathway, the assessment is €400 and you pay either €150 for the diagnostic letter or €350 for the extensive report on top.
  • On the PSI-registered Psychologist pathway, the €800 fee includes the full report.
  • On the Consultant Psychiatrist pathway, the price you see (€650 or €850) already includes the letter or the report respectively.

Children's assessments include the report in the price shown across all pathways. Most children's reports are used for school accommodations such as DARE and RACE, which need the full report rather than a brief letter, so we bundle it for clarity.

Autism and combined ADHD + Autism assessments include the diagnostic report in every pathway.

After an adult ADHD assessment you receive one of two written outcomes:

  • A brief diagnostic letter (€150 on the MDT pathway, included in others). Typically 1 to 2 pages confirming the diagnosis. Sufficient for GP shared care arrangements, most workplace accommodations and CAO disability support.
  • A detailed diagnostic report (€350 on the MDT pathway, included in others). A comprehensive document covering your history, symptoms and clinical findings. Often required by universities for ongoing disability support, by some employers, or where more clinical detail is needed.

You can choose which document suits your needs based on what the person asking for documentation requires.

Several services at Private Therapy Clinic are partially covered by VHI, Laya Healthcare and Irish Life Health, though cover varies considerably by plan. Some policies require a GP referral or psychiatrist authorisation before covering psychology or therapy sessions. We recommend checking directly with your insurer about your specific plan before booking.

Yes. The 10-minute initial phone chat is complimentary and is designed to help you understand which service would suit your needs. No payment details are required to book this call.

Yes. Our assessment reports are valid for submission to the HSE and accepted by Irish schools, universities and employers when requesting reasonable accommodations or Shared Care Agreements with GPs. ADHD reports support shared care arrangements for ongoing medication management.
