Online Autism Assessment for Adults

Get a neuro-affirming autism evaluation from the comfort of your home (or office).

You may be here because…

  • You’ve been learning about Autism and neurodivergence on social media and see yourself in what you’ve read.

  • A child or family member was recently identified as Autistic, and now you’re wondering if you might be, too.

  • You’ve always felt different—like you’re from another planet—but have never fully understood why.

  • You have a painful history of social difficulties and social rejection, but you don’t totally understand why these things keep happening.

  • You relate to non-stereotypical Autistic traits, like being hyper-empathic, highly sensitive, and highly existential.

  • You care deeply about fairness and justice.

  • You are a deep thinker, and sometimes you need some time to think about things before responding in a conversation.

  • You get easily overwhelmed in social situations. You don’t like eye contact, and you prefer to have a smaller number of deeper relationships.

  • You’ve struggled with (or been diagnosed with) ADHD, disordered eating, OCD, depression, social anxiety, CPTSD, or a personality disorder, but those labels don’t seem to capture the full picture of your experience.

  • You are struggling with chronic illness or burnout, and you are ready for things to change.

However you found your way here, I’m so glad you did. Keep reading to see if a neuro-affirming evaluation might be the right next step for you.

You've always felt different—like you don’t quite belong or as if you’re from another planet.

As a child, you may have preferred playing alone or with just one or two close friends. Perhaps you lost yourself in books for hours or found peace wandering in nature. Perhaps you’ve always felt a deep connection with animals—sometimes more than with people. Social situations can be draining, even exhausting.

You’ve spent your life trying to fit in, to be like everyone else. But deep down, it can feel like you’re constantly wearing a mask, performing just to navigate the world.

You’ve been trying to fit in for a long time, but you are feeling more and more exhausted. You are ready to find out more about yourself so you can figure out what really works for you.

I provide online neurodivergent-affirming psychological evaluations to help adults find out if they’re Autistic.

I believe assessment should be a collaborative and empowering experience that ultimately helps you better understand yourself. As a neurodivergent-affirming psychologist, I don’t see autism as a disorder, but as a different and equally valid way of being and experiencing the world. Because society is largely built around neurotypical needs, many Autistic individuals struggle for years before finally understanding why.

What's Included in Your Autism Assessment?

Your evaluation is conducted directly with me and includes:

  • Three hours of individual clinical assessment, including a comprehensive history and an in-depth autism interview.

  • Multiple standardized questionnaires and assessment measures exploring Autistic characteristics, masking, sensory experiences, repetitive behaviors, and related areas.

  • A comprehensive interview assessing Autistic traits. I use the Monteiro Interview Guidelines for Diagnosing the Autism Spectrum, 2nd Edition (MIGDAS-2), a structured, sensory-based interview approach designed to explore individual Autistic experiences.

  • Optional questionnaires for someone who knows you well, such as a partner, close friend, or family member.

  • A comprehensive written psychological report explaining your assessment findings and diagnostic conclusions.

  • Personalized recommendations for accommodations, therapy, and other supports relevant to your needs.

  • An individual feedback session to discuss your results and answer questions.

All appointments are conducted 100% online.
