Private Autism Assessment for Children
Our private child autism assessment is designed for children aged 9 and above. Each assessment is conducted online via video consultation, allowing your child to be assessed in the comfort and familiarity of their own home, reducing anxiety and improving the quality of results.
Initial Autism Screening Consultation for Children
This initial consultation with one of our qualified ASD specialists is designed to explore your child’s developmental history, behavioural signs, and symptoms in depth. It helps determine whether a full private autism assessment is clinically indicated and should be recommended.
- Financial Consideration: A full child autism assessment involves a £1,395 investment. The initial screening ensures only children most likely to benefit from a full diagnostic assessment proceed, protecting your time and budget.
- Clarity and Guidance: The consultation offers immediate expert insight, providing peace of mind and a clear next step.
- Convenience: Conducted via video consultation, the screening is accessible and can be arranged quickly.
*Note: This initial screening consultation is not a diagnostic assessment. A formal autism diagnosis requires a full diagnostic evaluation by a qualified ASD specialist.
