No questions were left unanswered, and the process was extremely through, to say the least. I found Gemma to be very kind and understanding during my diagnostic assessment. She made me feel safe and comfortable in the appointment. She was patient and respectful while I spoke about everything I had struggled with, and I feel she really got me. I have faced consistent difficulties throughout my life and while I, and others, suspected me to have ADHD I have felt a great sense of relief receiving a diagnosis. After diagnosis I feel I understand myself much better than I ever have before, and I now know what help I need moving forwards. I truly could not recommend this service enough. Thank you for everything you do!
