Autism Assessment
"The world needs every kind of mind to thrive."
Why Consider an Autism Assessment?
You might seek an autism assessment if your child shows differences in communication, social interaction, or behavioral patterns, especially if these are affecting their development, school progress, or daily life. Common signs include:
- Limited eye contact, gestures, or social engagement
- Delayed or unusual language development
- Repetitive behaviors or intense focus on specific interests
- Sensory sensitivities (e.g. to sound, texture, lights)
- Difficulty with change, transitions, or emotional regulation
Some children mask their challenges well—especially girls or highly verbal children—so a comprehensive assessment provides clarity and ensures they receive the right support.
