Assessment for Autism Spectrum Disorder
Our practice centers around providing compassionate and comprehensive support to children, adolescents, and adults.
When a parent is concerned about a child’s autism-related symptoms or an adult is considering their neurodivergence, various behavioral differences are usually noted.
We generally help those seeking to understand their experience better. As they reflect on their own or their children’s development, individuals most often notice patterns of perceiving and experiencing the world that have been present.
Most commonly, the following areas of difference are identified:
Language Differences
Social Differences
Specific and Intense Interests
Sensory Integration Differences
In addition, the assessment will examine functioning on a broader level. Factors including anxiety, depression, and trauma will also be addressed.
If a diagnosis of autism is ruled out, an accurate diagnosis with specific recommendations will be provided.
A feedback session will answer parent and client questions and include psychoeducational resources, work accommodations, and referrals for evidence-based treatments and support.
