A thorough, affirming assessment for adults who have always felt different — and want to understand why.
Your first 15-minute consultation is always free. No commitment required.
Many of the adults I see for autism evaluations aren't starting from scratch — they've been thinking about this for a while. Maybe they recognized themselves in a friend's diagnosis. Maybe they read something online that finally put words to a lifetime of feeling out of step with the people around them.
What I hear most often is some version of: "I've always known something was different about me, but I could never explain it." That feeling is valid, and it deserves a real answer.
Autism in adults — especially in women, people of color, and those who learned to mask early — is chronically under-diagnosed. Many adults have spent years with other diagnoses that never quite captured the whole story.
A diagnosis isn't a label — it's a lens. It can reframe decades of experiences and help you stop blaming yourself for things that were never your fault.
Documentation for workplace accommodations, educational support, and access to services and communities designed for autistic adults.
Many therapeutic approaches work differently for autistic people. Knowing where you stand changes what kind of help is most effective.
Autism affects people differently. The evaluation is designed to capture the full range of how autism may show up in your life — not just the stereotypical presentation.
How you navigate conversations, read social cues, form and maintain relationships, and experience social fatigue.
Sensitivity to sound, light, texture, taste, or touch. Sensory overwhelm and the strategies you use to manage it.
Comfort with routines, difficulty with unexpected changes, preference for structure.
Intense interests, deep expertise in specific areas, and how you process and organize information.
How you experience and manage emotions, including meltdowns, shutdowns, and overwhelm.
Many adults — especially women — have learned to hide autistic traits. The evaluation accounts for this.
We'll talk through what you've been experiencing, and we'll map out what your evaluation would involve and cost. No pressure, no obligation.
A detailed conversation about your history — childhood, school, friendships, sensory experiences, work, relationships. Collaborative, not interrogative.
A combination of cognitive testing, self-report questionnaires about your social and sensory experiences, informant interviews with people who know you well (with your permission), and validated measures specifically designed for identifying autism in adults.
We'll review your results together. Bring questions, bring a partner or friend if you'd like.
A detailed report with full results, diagnosis (if applicable), and specific recommendations for support, accommodations, and next steps.
Every evaluation is scoped to what you actually need, so cost depends on how much we're assessing.
A focused evaluation starts at $2,000. This covers the core testing, the written report, and your feedback session.
A comprehensive evaluation — ADHD, autism, and learning differences together — typically runs $6,500–$10,000, since it involves substantially more testing time and a more detailed report. Highly complex cases may fall outside this range; we'll scope those individually.
We'll determine the right scope for your situation, and confirm the exact cost, during your free consultation — before anything is scheduled.
If you have a PPO plan, we provide a detailed superbill you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement, which may help offset the cost depending on your plan.
