What is Autism

Autism is a neurological difference in the brain that affects how people experience the outside world. It is estimated that 1 in 100 people are autistic, but true statistics are not available due to there being many undiagnosed autistic individuals. As awareness of autism has increased, more people have identified with traits of autism and are seeking formal autism assessments, including private autism assessments and online autism assessments, to better understand themselves.

Autism is a spectrum condition, and symptoms can vary throughout a person’s lifetime. Early identification can help individuals develop skills to manage their challenges and improve their mental well-being.

Children: Signs of Autism

An autism assessment is the first step in understanding your child and helping others understand them. Receiving a diagnosis of autism does not change your child; it equips you and them with the tools and education needed to advocate for their needs.

Once diagnosed, we provide tailored recommendations to support your child in all areas of their life. Whether it’s through recognising early signs of emotional dysregulation in children, addressing sensory processing differences, or helping manage strong interests, our goal is to empower families.

“Receiving the diagnosis was a mixture of emotions. My clinician helped me process my feelings and highlighted my child’s strengths. They also gave me actionable recommendations for school to make their life easier.”

 

Adults: Signs of Autism

An autism assessment is the first step in understanding yourself and helping others understand you. Receiving a diagnosis does not change who you are; it gives you the tools and confidence to advocate for yourself. Once diagnosed, we offer tailored recommendations to support every aspect of your life, including strategies to address signs of burnout.

Whether you are seeking a private autism assessment, an online autism assessment, or a ‘face-to-face autism assessment near you’, we are here to support you every step of the way.

“Being told I was autistic was a turning point in my life. I finally felt heard, and I felt like I could be myself for the first time.”
