Autism Testing in Nashville
Evaluation for autism spectrum disorder for Ages 2-18 years
(Please feel free to call our office for names of other community providers who do ASD testing with adults who are 18+ years of age)
Early and accurate diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder can provide clarity and direction for effective intervention and appropriate support. Our providers use a neurodivergent-affirming approach and provide comprehensive autism diagnostic assessment services to youth ages 2 to 18 years. Our evaluation of autism characteristics and co-occurring challenges can provide insight into whether observed social and behavioral differences are consistent with autism and/or other developmental or psychological conditions.
We collect a detailed developmental history, gather information about co-occurring challenges (e.g., delays, language differences, mood concerns), obtain information from multiple sources (e.g., parents, teachers, therapists), and use evidence-based assessment approaches (e.g., ADOS-2) to ensure that a diagnosis is arrived at using a comprehensive evaluation.
Tailored treatment and school-based recommendations will be provided to address psychological, academic, social-emotional, behavioral, and/or developmental challenges.
