Wondering if you may be Autistic? ADHD? Both?
The Assessment Process
Comprehensive assessments consider autism, ADHD, and other potential explanations together, rather than evaluating any single diagnosis in isolation. For adults, particularly those with complex or overlapping presentations, a comprehensive approach is necessary to accurately understand what is going on. This includes evaluating patterns of attention, sensory processing, communication, mental health, and developmental history to determine how different factors may be interacting.
-
Before the first session you will complete a short pre-assessment intake that lets you share what feels important without pressure to perform, mask, or rove yourself.
I will also ask you to complete the following:
AQ-10 (quick screener)
CAT-Q (masking)
RAADS-R (autistic traits)
BDEFS
GAD-7
PHQ-9
Short sensory profile
-
90-120 Minutes
During our time together we will get to know each other a bit and talk through your experiences using the MIGDAS-2 as a guide (this is an autism specific interview tool). We will talk about your identities, history, executive functioning, and tease out some of the common experiences that can overlap with or seem like autism including depression, anxiety, or post-traumatic stress disorder.
-
You may invite someone who knows you well (a partner, close friend, or chosen family) to share their perspective as part of the assessment. This is optional and can provide additional context about your experiences.
-
This is our feedback session. I share what emerged in your assessment, we reflect on how it aligns with your internal experience, and we talk through what feels true for you.
You decide the level of documentation you want - a full report, a shorter summary, or no written report.
