An Autism Assessment involves a clinical diagnostic interview and a battery of tests that are designed to gain a broad understanding of someone’s experiential and behavioural profiles, to determine whether they are consistent with the Autistic brain style.
Autism assessment can be conducted at any age, and for any person who suspects:
1. That they might be Autistic
2. That finding out for sure would benefit their life in some way.
A basic Autism assessment includes following:
Initial consultation to gain background information and to identify the most appropriate level of assessment depth for the individual and their goals.
Clinical diagnostic interview for Autism (we use the MIGDAS 2.0)
Social functioning assessment (we use the SRS-2)
Feedback session to discuss assessment findings and recommendations
Comprehensive report
If identified as important and relevant to assessment goals, additional assessment measures can be added onto the basic assessment. Some of these might include:
Free additional screening for ADHD and/or suspected mental health conditions
