Our Child & Adult Autism (ASD) Assessment provides a clear diagnosis, as well as feedback and advice on next steps for therapy.
This Child and Adult Autism (ASD) psychological assessment service aims to determine if someone meets the criteria for a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
ASD is a neurodevelopmental difference and can fall into the category of ‘neurodiversity’, which is a term used to consider the natural differences in brain functioning in the human population. ASD affects how people interact with others, communicate, and learn. It is estimated that 1% of the population meets the criteria for a diagnosis of ASD.
Many children and adults who think they may be autistic have found ways to cope and function within a neurotypical world, however they may also find certain aspects of life particularly challenging. A diagnosis of Autism can shed some light on an individual’s difficulties, provide people with a more accurate way of understanding themselves, and can be a step towards moving forward in life in a positive way.
