Autistic brains work differently, affecting how people communicate and interact with the world around them. With early diagnosis and intervention, autistic children and teenagers can thrive and reach their full potential.
Autism is a spectrum disorder, so each child is unique, and their symptoms may vary.

An autism diagnosis can open doors to resources and support that can make a huge difference, helping children develop the necessary skills to live more comfortably.
Early diagnosis is the first step to helping your child overcome challenges and support their unique differences.
A neurodevelopmental specialist trained and experienced in diagnosing autism will work with you and your child to fully understand their strengths and challenges.
The UK still recognises several subtypes of autism, highlighted across a 'spectrum'. The signs and characteristics of these subtypes vary in ways that they impact each child.
Once diagnosed, we can provide tailored guidance and support to help your child manage their day-to-day challenges and live more comfortably.
An early diagnosis can help your child live a more comfortable, fulfilling life. If you have any concerns about their development, it's important to have them assessed by a trained professional. Schedule an assessment for your child today.
An autism diagnosis involves a comprehensive assessment process, including pre-assessment questionnaires, input from someone who knows your child well, and a detailed evaluation by a specialist clinician. You will then have a feedback appointment to review your child's results and discuss their next steps.
Before any appointments, there are between seven and ten questionnaires to complete, depending on the age of the child.
Yes, but a GP must provide your child with a referral. Once referred, we will review the information and begin the assessment process where appropriate. We provide assessments to children aged five and above. More information can be found on our Right to Choose page.
Our assessments are all conducted by appropriately qualified and experienced clinicians.
We offer the choice of online and in-person assessments, subject to availability. We have various clinics for face-to-face appointments around the UK. For more, please view our current locations.
