Comprehensive Private ASD Assessment

Living with ASD brings unique challenges for children. Symptoms present in different ways, making it important to have a comprehensive assessment that accurately diagnoses the effects of the condition. Our expert child ASD assessment goes beyond basic observations, aiming to uncover not just obvious symptoms, but also the subtle aspects that place a child on the autism spectrum.

Throughout this assessment journey, our goal is to empower both children and their families with a clear understanding of how ASD shapes their individual situations.

Why Consider A Child ASD Assessment?

ASD is a complex condition that presents differently in each child, so our assessment dives deep, aiming to find even the most subtle signs and behaviours in each individual. 

This precise approach ensures an accurate diagnosis, which is the foundation for creating personalised treatment plans, intervention strategies, and support services that match the child's specific needs.

Understanding and navigating life with ASD can be overwhelming. But having a clear understanding is the first step towards empowerment. Our assessment provides valuable insights into how ASD affects a child's daily life, helping families make informed decisions and use strategies that improve their overall quality of life.

At Diverse Diagnostics, we offer full treatment plans for children with ASD. Encompassing medication, therapy, and coaching, to support our commitment to providing comprehensive services. 

By incorporating these choices, we ensure individuals understand the full support we offer, enabling them to proceed confidently on their path to well-being.

Our Child ASD Assessment Process

1. Initial Evaluation

Our journey begins with an initial evaluation, conducted by one of our experienced Consultant child psychiatrists . During this session, you and your child will have the opportunity to discuss concerns and experiences, and establish a comfortable rapport.

This phase also includes a preliminary screening to assess your child's developmental and behavioural patterns.

2. Neurodevelopmental Profiling - ADI-R

To comprehensively understand your child's neurodevelopmental profile, we utilise a combination of validated assessment tools, interviews, and questionnaires. These tools cover a range of areas, including cognitive abilities, social interactions, communication skills, and sensory processing.

The second phase involves a deeper exploration of your child's history through a neurodevelopmental profiling process, integrating the data from collected questionnaires.

3. ADOS -2

The gold standard ADOS-2 assessment is completed F2F for all children. This is a play based assessment undertaken with a specialist Neurodevelopmental Therapist.

4. Child-Centred Assessment

Our assessment approach is holistic, involving various professionals with expertise in child development. During the child-centred assessment, your child's behaviour, interactions, and communication are observed through age-appropriate activities and structured observations. This phase is carried out by our specialised clinical team focused on child development.

5. Diagnostic Review

After completing the assessment, the final appointment includes a feedback session. You will receive a comprehensive report summarising the findings and diagnostic insights. In a subsequent meeting, our child psychiatrist will discuss the results with you, address any inquiries you might have, and offer personalised intervention recommendations tailored to your child's unique needs.

Why Is It Helpful To Have an ASD Diagnosis?

Getting a formal ASD diagnosis can make a significant difference to how you and your child manage presenting symptoms. It also validates the challenges that both children and families face, while giving a clear understanding of behaviours and traits that might have been confusing before.

This validation eases doubts, providing a comforting sense of relief, knowing that others with the same diagnosis share similar experiences.

A formal diagnosis opens doors to various support resources and treatments. Our skilled team can guide families toward evidence-based interventions, therapeutic strategies, and educational methods that suit the child's unique strengths and challenges.

With a diagnosis in hand, families can set out on an informed journey focused on achieving the best possible outcomes.
