Why choose us to complete an autism assessment for your child?

  • We are a multidisciplinary service run by two independent and highly experienced Clinical Psychologists (Dr Charlotte Wilkinson and Dr Jessica Howse) who consult together on assessments, alongside two experienced Clinical Nurses. We all have extensive experience completing neurodevelopmental assessments in NHS contexts.

  • We are able to provide autism diagnostic assessments for children and young people between the ages of 6 and 18 years.

  • Our assessments use ‘gold standard’ assessment tools (e.g., Developmental, Dimensional and Diagnostic Interview; 3di and Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule; ADOS-2).

  • We will provide a detailed profile of your child’s strengths and differences. As well as tailored advice, recommendations and a diagnosis where applicable.

  • The assessments we provide are based on the guidance from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE). Please see the NICE website for more details https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/cg128.
