A guided conversation about your experiences, from childhood to adult life.
Discuss your developmental history, current concerns, relationships, and daily life with your psychologist.
Explore social communication, sensory experiences, routines, and patterns of interest, including experiences that may be masked.
Your psychologist considers questionnaires alongside your history and interview, rather than relying on a screening score alone.
Review the clinical findings, ask questions, and discuss individualized recommendations and documentation.
Some adults seek an autism evaluation after years of adapting to social expectations or feeling overwhelmed by everyday environments. Others want to understand experiences that were overlooked earlier in life.
An assessment is an opportunity to discuss your own history and questions. There is no single story that every autistic adult shares, and an evaluation may identify autism, another explanation, or a need for further assessment.
Read published patient experiences and follow the source links on our reviews page. Individual experiences and outcomes vary.
Answers about adult autism assessment, documentation, and next steps.
You may wish to explore an evaluation if longstanding differences in social communication, sensory experiences, routines, or interests affect your daily life. Some adults seek answers after years of masking or feeling misunderstood. These experiences alone do not establish a diagnosis; a clinical assessment helps clarify what may be contributing.
A focused autism evaluation addresses whether you meet criteria for autism. A broader neuropsychological evaluation may also examine learning, memory, and cognitive abilities. If you need documentation for a school, employer, or testing organization, check its requirements before choosing an assessment.
Your psychologist discusses the findings and next steps with you. A diagnostic letter is generally available the day after the evaluation. A detailed report is a separate option with its own timeline; please confirm timing with our office before booking. Additional information may be needed before a diagnosis can be finalized.
A telehealth autism evaluation involves a clinical interview and questionnaires, rather than a self-guided online quiz. Your clinician considers whether the format fits your needs and whether further information or an in-person assessment is appropriate. No assessment format can guarantee a diagnosis or a particular outcome.
Your psychologist reviews your history, current experiences, and questionnaire responses, then discusses the findings and recommendations. Bring examples of the concerns that led you to seek testing and any relevant records you already have. Ask our office about preparation when booking.
At the Sachs Center, the assessment includes four main steps: (1) A 30-minute clinical interview with your psychologist discussing your current challenges, childhood experiences, work history, and family dynamics; (2) Review of Autism diagnostic criteria; (3) Evidence-based self-report questionnaires assessing impulsivity, executive functioning, attention, and focus; (4) Discussion of findings and diagnosis with your Sachs Center clinician, along with personalized treatment recommendations.An evaluation with a clinical psychologist provides time to explore your history and concerns in detail. You can meet our psychologists and review their areas of experience before booking. Your existing healthcare providers can also contribute relevant information and help coordinate follow-up care.
Your psychologist considers other possible explanations and co-occurring concerns. If you want both autism and ADHD assessed, explore our combined ADHD and autism evaluation and confirm the appropriate appointment with our office.
Yes, at the Sachs Center our Autism testing screens for anxiety and depression, as these conditions often overlap with or mimic Autism symptoms. We also consider other factors like mood disorders and medical conditions that can present similarly to Autism, ensuring an accurate diagnosis.Information from someone who knew you growing up, or records from childhood, may help provide context. If those are unavailable, tell your psychologist. Our office can explain what information to gather and whether input from a partner or family member would be useful.
While not required at the Sachs Center, it can be helpful to have partners, family, or friends provide input through questionnaires. This additional perspective can help paint a more complete picture of your symptoms and challenges, especially since adult Autismers often learn to mask their symptoms over time. Our psychologists will guide you on whether this would be beneficial for your specific situation.Documentation may support an accommodation request, but the receiving organization decides what it requires and whether a request is approved. Ask your employer, school, or testing organization for its documentation criteria before booking. Our office can help you compare the diagnostic-letter and detailed-report options.
Absolutely! After your assessment at the Sachs Center, you’ll receive a diagnosis letter that can be used to obtain workplace accommodations.
