If your child or young person is experiencing difficulties at home or in school that affect their academic progress, social interactions, or communication, and you are unsure whether they should be assessed for autism or ADHD, we offer a screening assessment to help. You will meet with our Neurodevelopmental Screening Practitioner and be asked to complete some screening questionnaires.
After the screening, you will also receive a short report summarizing the findings and we will help you make an informed decision about pursuing a full assessment.
If you choose to proceed with a full assessment, the cost of the screening will be deducted from the total price of the comprehensive evaluation.
