What is an Autism Spectrum Disorder in Adults?
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how a person perceives the world and interacts with others. It involves differences in social communication and interaction, along with restricted or repetitive patterns of behavior and interests.
While diagnostic criteria historically focused on childhood presentation, autism is now understood as a lifelong condition. In adulthood it can show up as differences in reading social cues, sensory sensitivities, a strong reliance on routine, and challenges with executive functioning such as planning and adapting to change

Cost
Cost
The Adult Autism Add-On costs $2,000 when added to an existing assessment.
For clients without an existing assessment to attach the add-on to, we also offer a standalone Comprehensive Autism Assessment, which can include evaluation for co-occurring conditions such as ADHD and anxiety, for $4,500.
If you have insurance coverage for psychological services, our team can provide an estimate to help determine the portion of the cost that may be covered by your plan.
