The child is assessed by a licensed professional (e.g., psychologist or developmental pediatrician) to determine if an autism diagnosis is appropriate.

Stay in the loop
We’ll reach out every 2–3 weeks with a friendly check-in—just to see how things are going, offer encouragement, and answer any questions. You're not in this alone.

Diagnosis confirmation
Families receive official results (typically within 1–2 weeks of the evaluation).

We move forward with the official intake process—this includes scheduling your child’s ABA assessment, verifying insurance authorization, and preparing a personalized treatment plan to begin services.
Next, you’ll be transferred to our intake team to complete the remaining steps.
