So, today I finally received the feedback from my initial assessment, which has arrived almost 2 months after I was told to expect it but never mind.
I'm not sure what I was expecting, but the letter I've got is still a bit vague. Maybe this is what normally happens next anyway, but I thought I'd share in case anybody had any insight.
So, the letter starts off with a summary of the assessment, which seems based purely on the telephone conversation I had with the psychologist and doesn't refer to anything in the questionnaire that I had to fill out beforehand.
After that it goes into recommendations, saying that the clinical team agrees that the most helpful next step is to "explore ways of supporting the traits and difficulties" that arose in the initial assessment, and that I would be invited to attend a support webinar that will focus on understanding autism spectrum conditions and ways of supporting autistic traits that are impacting on my life.
After this webinar, it says there will be a review to consider what additional support or contacts are needed.
Shoud I see this as a sort of extension to the initial assessment to further determine whether I would meet the requirements for or benefit from a full assessment or a diagnosis?
