Autism Assessment Sydney

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition with symptoms that vary widely, hence the term “spectrum.”

The impact of autism on daily life can range from mild to severe. Some individuals may need significant support, while others can live independently. Each person’s experience with autism is unique, with no “one size fits all” approach.

As a leading child psychologist in Sydney, we know that early intervention and tailored support can greatly enhance outcomes, helping individuals with autism develop crucial social, communication, and life skills. Our autism assessment for kids aims to provide children and parents with the information, education, and tools they need to thrive.

We also offer ADHD assessments in Sydney and paediatric consultations in Sydney.

Key Characteristics Identified Through Autism Assessments for Kids

Autism is characterised by challenges in social communication, repetitive behaviours, and restricted interests, with symptoms that can vary widely among individuals.

Social Communication & Interaction Difficulties

Individuals with autism often struggle with social interactions, finding it difficult to interpret facial expressions, body language, and social nuances like humour or sarcasm. These challenges can make forming relationships more complex.

Repetitive Behaviours & Restricted Interests

Individuals with autism may engage in repetitive movements like rocking or hand-flapping, adhere strictly to specific routines, or develop intense focus on specific interests.

Sensory Sensitivities

Many individuals with autism experience heightened or diminished sensitivity to sensory inputs such as light, sound, touch, or taste. These sensitivities can manifest in various ways, leading some to actively seek out certain sensory experiences for comfort or stimulation.
