Your questions, answered
What is an autism assessment?
An autism assessment evaluates communication, social interaction, sensory preferences, and behavior patterns using standardized tools and observations. Clinicians consider development, language, and co-occurring conditions to provide a clear profile of strengths and needs. If attention and executive functioning are central questions too, ADHD assessments may be part of the plan.
Which tools are used in autism assessment?
Common components include caregiver interviews, play or conversation samples, rating scales, and standardized measures of language and cognition. The selection matches age, culture, and referral questions to ensure the results are meaningful and actionable.
How long does an autism assessment take?
Duration depends on age, language, and scope. Many assessments span multiple sessions to allow comfortable pacing and complete information. You will receive a feedback meeting and a report with practical recommendations.
Can autism and ADHD be assessed together?
Yes. It is common to assess for both when questions overlap. Your clinician may coordinate tools and collateral input to reduce duplication, then provide integrated recommendations that address attention, sensory needs, communication, and daily functioning. If ADHD is part of the question, see ADHD assessments for what that process usually includes.
Should I do an autism assessment or a psychoeducational assessment?
If the main goal is school supports and learning profile (reading, writing, math, processing), a Psychoeducational assessment or Learning assessment may be the better first step. An autism assessment is most useful when social-communication differences, sensory regulation, or developmental history are central to the referral question.
What supports follow autism assessment?
Recommendations may include school accommodations, communication strategies, occupational therapy for sensory needs, and community resources. Clinicians can coordinate with your team to implement supports that fit daily routines.
How do I start an autism assessment?
An intake clarifies history, strengths, and priorities, then outlines tools, timelines, and costs. You will receive a checklist for records and a plan for next steps after feedback.
What supports are common after an autism assessment?
Recommendations often focus on daily functioning: communication supports, sensory strategies, school planning, and family guidance. Depending on age and goals, skills-based interventions may be helpful. Applied behavioural therapists can support specific behaviour and skills goals, and Child and adolescent counselling can help with emotional regulation, school stress, and family coordination around the plan.
