Note about Autism & ADHD Assessment

We are firm believers in treatment, education, psycho-education, and fulfillment of your potential. We do not just label people with a limiting diagnosis (see the limitation of diagnosis see the book here) or just help a person get disability designation.

That is why we do not diagnosis Autism, ADHD, or any other permanent neuro-developmental challenge without seeing a person for at least six (6) counseling sessions to see what help the person needs. We will help you with whatever challenges you are having at least six (6) sessions before just labeling you. Assessment for Autism & ADHD will take place in the context of therapy. CAASS does not do assessment for Autism or ADHD outside of therapy.
