Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition which affects the way an individual perceives the world.
As it’s on a spectrum, not everyone will experience the same traits or need the same support. However, there are some common traits, including differences in communication styles, repetitive behaviours, or taking sayings literally.

Our child autism assessment near Derby means your child can receive personalised guidance both in and out of school.
We know going for an autism assessment can feel scary, but knowing what to expect can make it feel easier. We follow a six-step process, using the same DSM-5 guidelines as the NHS.
Step one is to fill out our questionnaire and sliding scale, so we can start building a picture of how autism impacts you. We won’t charge you for this step unless you progress further with us.
Next, we’ll speak to your loved ones and family about your behaviour in the day-to-day. We’ll get your permission for this before any emails or calls are made.
With the relevant background information built, you’ll now be invited to our clinic for an in-person chat. If you go for our online assessment offering, we’ll send you a secure video link. Approximately 60-90 minutes.
Seeing how you act in everyday situations and communicate with others is an important part of the assessment process. As such, we’ll do an observational assessment in your own space using ADOS-2 tools.
Now we’ve gathered all the information we need, we can begin analysing it against DSM-5 criteria for autism. When we have an answer, we’ll invite you back to discuss our findings.
With your diagnosis now received, we’ll send a follow-up report detailing all our findings. You’ll generally receive this within 7 working days of our diagnostic decision.
Please note: For more complex cases, our Specialist Clinicians may need to seek advice from a Consultant Psychiatrist. In these instances, reports may be delayed beyond 7 working days as a result. We will always keep you informed if this happens in your case.
