Autism Assessment for women in Glasgow

Clarity Clinic is built entirely around women, so a autism assessment here accounts for the things generalist services routinely miss: cyclical symptoms, hormonal transitions, years of masking, and the way Glasgow referral routes actually work in practice. Adult ADHD provision across NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is limited and, in some areas, adults have historically had no dedicated route at all. Scotland does not operate the English Right to Choose scheme, so private assessment is often the only realistic timescale.

Because Scottish prescribing and shared care differ from England, we match Glasgow clients to clinicians registered and practising in Scotland wherever medication may be involved.

If your symptoms shift across the month or have changed since your late thirties, read ADHD and PMS, oestrogen and dopamine and ADHD and menopause before your appointment. It usually makes the first session far more useful.

About autism assessment in Glasgow
