If you’re located in or around Camberley, Surrey, Child Mental Health Clinic can offer a professional assessment as soon as possible.
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability which can cause issues with social communication and interaction. Children with this condition also often have restricted or repetitive behaviors or interests.
Kids with ASD often have different ways of learning in comparison to other children.
Because it impacts someone’s ability to communicate and learn, it can affect all areas of their life. It’s therefore crucial a child gets an ASD assessment, which will help them get the support they need at school and home.
Although it’s more common in boys, girls can still have ASD but are often better at masking their symptoms. It’s important that someone carrying out an assessment is good at spotting more covert signs.
Why choose our clinic in Camberley for your child’s ASD diagnosis?
Child Mental Health Clinic can offer an assessment much quicker than through the public system and have a specialist team of child psychiatrists and psychologists to provide clear recommendations to help support you and your child.
The process starts with an initial psychiatric consultation with our Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist that usually takes about 90 minutes. If your child screens negative, no further action is required. However, if not, we will proceed with a full ASD assessment.
