Autism Evaluations
Our group provides comprehensive autism evaluations using validated diagnostic tools and a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach.
Our diagnostic process includes collaboration with trusted clinical partners at Restore Occupational Therapy and Flatland Psychiatry, allowing us to evaluate developmental, behavioral, sensory, and medical factors together.
We provide autism evaluations for individuals ages 12 months through adulthood.
WHAT SETS US APART
We are committed to providing families with accurate, comprehensive evaluations and diagnoses.
Our approach considers the whole child, recognizing that some behaviors observed in a brief appointment may resemble autism but be related to other factors. A range of experiences and conditions can present with overlapping symptoms, and each requires careful consideration to ensure an accurate diagnosis. These may include trauma-related conditions, sensory processing differences, attachment concerns, auditory processing difficulties, anxiety, and more.
