Autism evaluation and support
Autism evaluation and support
Some families need an answer. Some already have one and need the house to work. We do both. Evaluation and testing for clinicians with the formal training to provide it, and therapy for the relationships around the diagnosis.
Sessions are by telehealth in Texas and Florida, by appointment. The first call is where we sort out which part you need.
Evaluation and testing
An autism evaluation looks at development, communication, sensory patterns, and how the person functions at home, at school, and with other people. It is not a five-minute quiz. It is a structured process, and it is only done by a clinician trained to do it.
Bring prior records if you have them. School reports, a previous evaluation, and what a typical day actually looks like. We will tell you at the consultation whether video is a fit for the measures, or whether part of the testing needs a different setting.
Support after the question is answered
A diagnosis does not fix the morning. We work with the person and the family on routines, shutdowns, school conflict, siblings, and couples who are not on the same page about what help looks like. The client is not treated as the problem in the system.
How to start
Book a consultation and say whether you are asking for an evaluation, for therapy, or you are not sure yet.
