Autism Diagnostic Assessments

Having your child diagnosed with Autistic Spectrum Condition can come as a shock to some parents. Whilst it may bring a sense of relief and provide reasons for some of their difficulties (e.g. challenging behaviours). It also takes time to process the information you've been given, which can feel overwhelming. 

Our team are here to support you as parents. Remember your child hasn't changed because of their diagnosis - but it will provide them with access to the support they require to thrive and reach their communication potential. 

You are never alone in this process, we are always here to support you, your child and your family.

With over 50 years combined experience in the field of Autism, Linda Campbell-Arthur - Chartered Clinical Psychologist and our Highly Specialist  Speech and Language Therapists, work as a multi-disciplinary team with you and your child to deliver gold-standard Autism Assessments, using the ADOS (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule and 3Di (Developmental Diagnostic Dimensional Interview). The ADOS and 3Di are standardised diagnostic tests for Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

Assessment can take place at your choice of clinic setting - St Albans, Harley Street or Sheen.
