Autism

Children and adults on the autistic spectrum possess unique social and communication styles. While their language development may take a different path than typical and their speech might feature distinctive patterns or a formal, monotone voice, these traits contribute to their individuality. Social interactions can be challenging, as they may find it difficult to interpret others' emotions, engage in pretend play, or form friendships. Eye contact might be less frequent, reflecting their unique way of connecting with the world. Additionally, they often thrive on consistency and routine, and may have passionate interests in specific areas. Our evaluations for Autism/Asperger’s Disorder are comprehensive, assessing these diverse characteristics along with cognitive skills, adaptive functioning (everyday independence), sensory processing (responses to sound, touch, taste, movement), and academic performance (as relevant). Many of our clinicians are trained in the ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule - Second Edition) and the MIGDAS (Monteiro Interview Guidelines for Diagnosing the Autism Spectrum), ensuring a thorough and sensitive assessment of autism spectrum disorder traits.
