Diagnostic Assessment for Children

Our service will work collaboratively with you and/or your family to support you through the diagnostic process. 

This will consist of: 

• Initial telephone consultation to discuss the needs of your child.

• Follow up consultation for an initial screening, will include collating information about the child's developmental history,  social communication, interests, sensory needs, strengths, well-being and current concerns.  It will be agreed beforehand whether it is a parent/s only or parent/s and child screening. 

• School feedback will be requested as part of the diagnostic assessment. 

• The ADOS-2 will be carried out with the Clinical Psychologist and Speech and Language Therapist at our London Based Clinic. 

• The ADI-R will be carried out remotely or face to face with the child's parent/s on the same day if possible. 

• Comprehensive report will be written and a diagnostic feedback session will be arranged with the child and their family.  Recommendations will also be discussed and agreed.
