ADHD & Autism Assessment Process
Want to get started with ADHD & Autism Assessment? Here are the next steps:
1. Contact & Consult:
Fill out my contact form or send me an email. We can then set up a virtual consultation to make sure we are a good fit. Consultations are held on Google Meet and last about 15-20 minutes. Have questions ready to go.
2. Scheduling & Set Up:
You’ll self-schedule your appointments, activate your portal account, and complete paperwork and screeners in the portal prior to our first appointment. I use a platform called TherapyPortal to securely store client information, and to hold virtual sessions.
3. Assessments:
Your package includes a one hour personal history interview, and one or two long form interview assessments. You will also complete several self-report assessments, and send an assessment to someone who knows you well. Assessments can be done virtually, in-person, or a combo of both options.
4. Wrap Up & Resources:
Your final session is a 45-minute wrap up which includes going over all assessment scores and my interpretations of the results. You can ask questions about the diagnostic report, and I will also provide you with tons of resources- readings, YouTube channels, podcasts, books, etc. I can also help you with referrals for medication management and therapy if needed.

DIVA-5 Interview, Weiss Functional Impairment Scale, Copeland Symptom Checklist, Adult ADHD Quality of Life Scale, Barrett Impulsiveness Scale, Executive Skills Questionnaire, and External Report Surveys
