Services at Private CAMHS Glasgow

Specialised services for every child's needs.

We are specialists in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and all work within local NHS CAMHS services. We have a wealth of experience in assessment and multi-disciplinary treatment of young people with a variety of mental health concerns.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

ADHD often presents in young people with some or all of the following

  • Inattention - struggling to focus or pay attention.

  • Hyperactivity - feeling restless and struggling to sit still.

  • Impulsivity - saying or doing things without thinking.

We offer a full assessment for ADHD in line with the NICE guideline standards and can provide recommendations of appropriate interventions or support for the young person at home and school.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

ASD can present in a variety of ways for young people and can vary in presentation dependant on the age of the patient. Some common issues noted by families include:

  • An unusual style of communication

  • Struggling with friendships

  • An unusual style of play in younger children

  • Finding changes to routine difficult

  • A strong sense of justice or highly literal thinking style

  • Unusual or obsessional interests

  • Sensory difficulties

We offer a full comprehensive assessment in line with NICE guidelines, including ADOS assessment. We link-in with schools and families to complete a robust assessment that allows us to provide appropriate recommendations to families, schools and employers.

If you are worried about a young person's mood you might have noticed some of these symptoms:

  • Altered mood - lower, more irritable or angry

  • Sleep disturbance

  • Eating difficulties

  • Struggling with motivation or focus

  • Negative thoughts, including self-harm

We are able to assess and treat mood disorders, incorporating psychological and/or pharmacological intervention, where appropriate.
