Affirming Autism

Our assessment services

Comprehensive Autism Diagnosis £1500

Assessment by 2 qualified clinicians. Duration 3 hours

Initial Questionnaires & Background Information

After booking, you’ll receive a set of intake forms. These help us understand your:

  • Developmental history
  • Social communication preferences
  • Sensory experiences
  • Strengths, challenges, and mental health background

We aim to keep this process accessible and stress-free. There are no “right” or “wrong” answers—just your story

Clinical Interviews

You’ll meet with our experienced clinicians who specialise in autism assessments for adults. During this friendly and supportive session, we’ll explore:

  • How you experience relationships, communication, and social situations
  • How you manage sensory input, routines, and change
  • Your thought patterns, interests, and coping strategies
  • Any experiences of masking, burnout, or co-occurring conditions (such as ADHD, anxiety, or depression)

You’re welcome (but not required) to involve a parent, partner, or someone who knew you as a child. Their insight can help build a full picture of your developmental history—but we understand that’s not always possible or desired

Diagnosis, Feedback & Report

After completing the assessment, we will let you know the outcome. If you meet the criteria for Autism diagnosis we’ll explain how your profile aligns with a diagnosis in a clear, affirming way.

You’ll receive a detailed, neuro-affirmative diagnostic report, which can be used for:

  • university accommodations
  • Accessing support services
  • Personal clarity and self-acceptance
     

Your report will be the same standard as an NHS one, mapped to ICD-11 criteria

Follow-up

We will offer you a 1/2 hour follow up appointment to discuss your report and resources which may help you. 

We will provide you with suggestions for reasonable adjustments and diagnosis letter. 

With your consent, we can let your GP know the outcome of your assessment and confirm your diagnosis 

Autism Screening Assessment £350

Assessment by a qualified clinician. Duration 1 hour

Adult Autism screening Assessment

Our Autism Screening Assessment offers a supportive first step for adults who are exploring whether autism may be part of their lived experience. If you’ve ever wondered why social interactions feel exhausting, sensory input is overwhelming, or everyday tasks take extra energy—this assessment can help provide clarity.

This is a 1-hour session led by a qualified Speech and Language Therapist or Specialist Nurse, with a detailed summary report and recommendations tailored to you. 

Neuro-Affirming Insight into indicators of autism

Our Autism Screening Assessment for Adults offers a focused, supportive exploration of your potential autistic characteristics.

It is ideal if you are:

  • Exploring autism as part of your neurodivergent identity
  • Want insight without committing to a full diagnostic process

While not a standalone diagnostic assessment, it provides valuable insight into whether a full autism diagnosis may be helpful.

What’s Included in the Screening Assessment?

This session is designed to explore key areas, such as:

How you understand and use communication in different contexts

Daily Living Skills-
Executive functioning (planning, time, organisation)

Sensory Processing
Sensitivities or responses to sound, light, textures, or smells

Strategies that help you stay grounded and comfortable

This is a neuro-affirmative process — not about “fixing” challenges, but understanding your unique experience.

What You’ll Receive


After your session, you’ll get a written summary report.

Practical strategies and next-step recommendations

Suggestions for reasonable adjustments at work, home, or school

Advice on whether a full autism diagnostic assessment may be appropriate

If you later decide to proceed with a full diagnostic assessment through us, the cost of this screening will be deducted from the total.
