AYC Psychology and Assessment Services
At AYC Psychology and Assessment Services we deliver high quality, private and NICE compliant multi-disciplinary autism assessments. We firmly believe in the principles of neurodiversity, recognising that autism is a natural variation of human neurology rather than a disorder or deficit. We provide a supportive and inclusive environment where individuals feel valued, understood, and empowered throughout the assessment process. We strive to create a space that acknowledges the diverse perspectives, abilities, and challenges associated with autism.
Our assessments involve a multidisciplinary team of professionals who bring a diverse range of expertise and perspectives. By working together, we gain a comprehensive understanding of the individual’s strengths, challenges, and needs. We ensure that our assessments are scheduled promptly with minimal wait time ensuring that the outcome of the assessment is delivered clearly and accessibly and in a timely manner. The benefits of our assessments Understanding and self-awareness: an autism diagnosis provides individuals with a better understanding of their unique characteristics, strengths and challenges.
Access to support and resources: a diagnosis can open doors to various support services, therapies and resources specifically tailored to meet the needs of individuals with autism. Academic and vocational support: an autism diagnosis often enables individuals to access reasonable adjustments in the form of educational accommodations and specialised programs that can address their learning style and challenges. It can also help in obtaining workplace accommodations and support. Family and peer understanding: an autism diagnosis helps families gain a deeper understanding of an individual’s experiences and challenges. It fosters empathy, promotes acceptance and encourages the development of supportive and inclusive environments. Personal growth and empowerment: accepting an autism diagnosis can empower individuals to embrace their strengths and pursue personal growth. It can lead to increased self advocacy, self esteem and the ability to set goals whilst embracing their unique identity.
Our assessments are always accepted by local NHS trusts and educational providers. The cost of one of our assessments is £1750. This cost is inclusive of all diagnostic activity and report writing. Our detailed diagnostic reports can be used to ensure that reasonable adjustments are implemented in school/college or your work environment. In the case of children our diagnostic reports can also support EHCP applications.
For adult clients that would wish to be assessed for autism remotely we accept referrals internationally. For adult and child referrals we accept national referrals (providing the client is agreeable to travel to our offices in Central Warrington). For combined autism/ADHD assessments we accept referrals nationally. However, school visits can only be undertaken for clients that live within an hours travel to our base.
