At what age can my child be evaluated for autism?

We provide comprehensive autism evaluations for children up to their 4th birthday. Our early intervention focus allows us to specialize in the unique developmental patterns and assessment approaches most effective for toddlers and preschoolers.

What if my child is approaching their 4th birthday?

If your child is nearing their 4th birthday and you're considering an evaluation, we encourage you to contact us as soon as possible. We can typically accommodate children who begin the evaluation process before turning 4, even if some appointments extend slightly past their birthday. For children who are already 4 or older, we maintain relationships with excellent providers who specialize in school-age evaluations and can provide appropriate referrals.

What should I expect during my child's autism evaluation?

Our evaluation process is designed to be comfortable and engaging for your child. The assessment includes a combination of both virtual and in-person appointments to provide a comprehensive evaluation. We use a variety of activities including structured play, interactive tasks, and observation in different settings. Your child may participate in activities like puzzles, games, and social interactions while our clinicians observe their communication, behavior, and developmental skills.

Do you accept my insurance for autism evaluations?

We work with most major insurance providers, including Medicaid and many commercial plans. Our team will verify your coverage before your appointment and help you understand any out-of-pocket costs. 

How should I prepare my child for the evaluation?

The best preparation is keeping your child's routine as normal as possible before the appointment. Bring any comfort items your child might need, and let them know they'll be playing games and meeting new people. We offer a variety of appointment times to accommodate your family's needs and your child's schedule.
