Autism (ASD) Assessment

What is An 
ASD Assessment


An Autism assessment can support your family to better understand your child’s strengths, explain the root of some of their challenges, and
support therapeutic and educational decision making to promote more positive outcomes. By better understanding your child’s unique profile, treatment and school supports can be better curated to their unique needs and depending on the results of the assessment, public funding can become more accessible.

 

An autism assessment can also be combined with a full psycho-educational assessment to gain a fuller understanding of your child’s cognitive, behavioural, and academic profile.

What To Expect

1

Initial Meeting

The parents, child, and psychologist come together to talk about what's happening now, look at past information like school reports, previous tests, and doctor's notes, and highlight the needs within the assessment.

​

​

2

Psychological Testing

Through parent interviews, child interviews, and questionnaires we gather comprehensive information about your child's ADHD traits and cognitive challenges. Testing is done in a single 3 hour session.

Report Writing & Recommendations

The psychologist synthesizes test results, interview insights, and questionnaire findings into a comprehensive report. This report not only summarizes the findings but also offers recommendations for strategic school accommodations and in home-support strategies.

Feedback 

A feedback session will be scheduled four to six weeks after your last appointment where you will meet with our psychologists to review the results and recommendations. Together, you will discuss the best course of action moving forward.
