Autism & ADHD Testing

If you've been questioning whether your child might benefit from an evaluation, you're not the only one. Many parents observe shifts in their child's behavior, focus or communication and are uncertain about the next steps. While seeking answers can seem daunting, its often the beginning of gaining valuable insight and finding the right support.

Why Do We Offer Tests/Screenings?

We are providing diagnostic evaluation services to allow not only for essential early intervention but also increased access to care. The evaluations provide diagnostics needed for obtaining ABA services, speech and occupational services, mental health services, and educational services such as a 504 plan or IEP, grade placement, school/daycare placement, or college and university educational accommodations. Evaluations further allow for recommendations for support groups and a better basis for treatment plans. If there is a possibility for a diagnosis, evaluations are sometimes more than just helpful: they can be vital in getting a patient the treatment they need.

What to Expect:
Clinical Introduction for ADHD & Autism Assessments
Outpatient Setting – Children
At Social Care Services, we specialize in behavioral and developmental assessments designed to help identify conditions such as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in children and adolescents.
Our assessments are conducted in a structured outpatient setting and aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of your child’s:
- Cognitive functioning
- Emotional and behavioral patterns
- Social communication and interaction skills
- Executive functioning and attention regulation
What to Expect
Our evaluation process includes:
- Clinical interviews with parents/guardians and the child
- Behavioral observations during sessions
- Standardized screening tools and rating scales
- Review of medical, developmental, educational, and psychosocial history
- Coordination with pediatricians, educators, and other providers (with signed consent)
This is not a one-size-fits-all process. Each child’s presentation is unique, and our goal is to gather detailed, individualized information to guide accurate diagnosis and tailored recommendations.

Our Approach
We aim to identify:
- Whether your child meets criteria for ADHD, Autism, or other related conditions
- How symptoms may be impacting functioning across settings (e.g., home, school, social situations)
- Strategies for support, including therapy, educational accommodations, and possible referrals
All assessments are conducted by clinicians trained in child and adolescent development, neurodivergence, and evidence-based screening tools.

Confidentiality
All clinical information obtained during the assessment is confidential and used only for evaluation and treatment planning purposes. Information will only be shared with others (e.g., schools, doctors) with your written consent, except in cases required by law (e.g., safety concerns, mandated reporting).
