Ready to deep dive your autistic traits?

Do you want to rule out Autism quickly and easily without waiting months? Do you have a gut feeling there’s more to you than what everyone else thinks and you want help to know what that is? Are you 99% sure you’re Autistic but still feel that shred of doubt about fully jumping into the community and taking up space? Or do you already identify as autistic and are ready to seek a professional confirmation or validation?

You may be masking your true self to avoid stigma, or maybe your relationships with loved ones are strained due to frequent misunderstandings. Living without knowing your neurotype and unique needs can make life incredibly challenging. If you’re looking for answers, understanding, and validation, we’re here to help with a streamlined, professional autism assessment designed to give you the clarity you deserve.

Searching for answers without the typical constraint of evaluation?

Are you searching for answers without the lengthy wait, exhausting process, or high cost of traditional comprehensive Autism assessments? Whether you already identify as Autistic or have a gut feeling there’s more to your story, we’re here to help.

Reach out to get the understanding and support that can change your life.

At Neuron & Rose Psychological Services, our clinicians (both doctoral and master’s level) are now offering abbreviated evaluations so you can finally get confirmation of what you’ve known all along.

Autism Assessments CAN BE ACCESSIBLE

At Neuron & Rose Psychological Services, our abbreviated evaluation process provides insights into your unique brain and support needs. We help highlight what Autism actually is and identify concrete ideas for ways you can accommodate yourself, and advocate for accommodations and supports from others.

Abbreviated evaluations are perfect for folks who are fairly certain they are Autistic and want a quick, collaborative assessment process with minimal paperwork and time. They are also ideal for folks looking to understand their brain, have done a lot of research on their own ahead of time, and do not need comprehensive support services at the end.

These evaluations are shorter and more affordable. They are conducted by neuroaffirming assessors trained in affirming assessment, how Autism presents in high maskers and folks raised as girls, as well as folks with multiply marginalized identities. They will provide you with either a letter documenting any diagnoses or a short 3-5 page report. Here’s a quick comparison:

Abbreviated ADULT Autism Assessment Process

Here at Neuron & Rose Psychological Services, clients interested in abbreviated autism assessments can schedule a free 15-minute consult with someone from the assessment team. This is to ensure all questions are answered and that the process and next steps are discussed.

The assessment process itself is virtual, so you don’t need to come into the office. The virtual assessment process allows you to remain in the environment that is most comfortable for you. Further, you are encouraged to have sensory fidgets on hand and dress comfortably. 

As an adult being evaluated for autism you are encouraged to share results from online self-tests (such as the RAADS-R Autism test), notes you’ve taken about Autistic traits you relate to, or even anecdotes from those around you, if applicable.

Our abbreviated evaluations typically last for three appointments. Each appointment lasts about two hours depending on individual support needs. Appointments are once or twice a week depending on your assessor and your availability.

You will receive the results of your Autism assessment at your feedback session, which typically occurs two weeks after your final testing appointment. The final letter and/or report can be expected roughly four to eight weeks after the final testing appointment.

Sometimes we recommend that clients engage in ongoing support such as individual therapy, family therapy, or occupational therapy. We can provide individual therapy at the clinic if our clinicians are a good fit. If not, we will provide referrals. We also offer resources/referrals tailored to your specific needs.

Neuron and Rose practices from a neurodiversity-affirming framework. We believe that neurodiversity is natural and worthy of appreciation and celebration. We understand the unique challenges that you face navigating neurotypical spaces. We also recognize that an Autism diagnosis often co-occurs with other conditions such as depression and anxiety. Our expert clinicians provide ongoing care and support, focused on improving your well-being, strengthening authentic connections, finding community, and truly healing from burnout.
