Do you suspect your child has autism but haven’t yet received a diagnosis?
Although there is no cure for ASD, getting a diagnosis can help in so many ways, including helping to get your child the support they need at home or school. You can also learn more about the condition and the best ways with which to provide a brighter future for your child.
A diagnosis also helps you determine which behaviours are due to autism, rather than merely bad behaviour.
The Child Mental Health Clinic regularly carries out diagnostic assessments for ASD (autism) at our clinic in Farnham, Surrey.
This can involve a highly recommended initial psychiatric consultation with our Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist. Those who screen positive for autism will then proceed to a full multi-disciplinary diagnostic assessment.
Parents then receive a comprehensive report describing the outcome of the ASD assessment and recommendations for the best way forward.
Following the ASD assessment, you will be offered a feedback appointment to go through the assessment findings and our recommendations. You will then receive a fully comprehensive report and our team can talk you through the options available to help your child and your family.
