Our autism specialist provides interventions for children, families, and adults, including identifying and initially assessing possible autism. We support children, adults and families following an Autism diagnosis. And we provide education about Autism. Finally, our specialist psychotherapy will equip you and your family to improve your mental health and well-being.

Our Autism Specialist delivers pivotal interventions to help people who believe or suspect they may be autistic. Being autistic means you may find navigating the world and daily life challenging. Our Autism Specialist provides interventions for children, families and adults, including:

Screening & Assessment*

An essential part of the process is screening using neurodevelopmental history taking and observation. It helps identify areas where support may be needed.

Educational Support

An intervention involves educating those who suspect or have been diagnosed with autism. Understanding an autistic identity can lead to better outcomes and set the groundwork for improving coping skills.

Functional Analysis

Understanding the context of your habits, what you hope for, and how well your strategies work for the life you want.

Therapy Sessions

Therapy such as CBT, Counselling and Systemic Family Therapy helps improve communication, handle anxiety, develop social relations and augment autonomy. Here you can find more information on this topic.

* We do not offer an NHS Autism diagnosis. We can screen for autism using neurodevelopmental history taking and observation. For a formal assessment, we recommend you ask your GP or a SENCO Worker for a referral.  

Our service is part of Openforwards CBT & Counselling.
