psychotherapist

Why would you not tell your therapist?

Note that some NT approaches will not work well on ND, so telling them seems a good idea.

Only downside is they may not know so much about ND. My psychologist said autism was only covered for a few days in all her formal qualifications. This may be changing, but most will have done degrees etc. some years ago.

Its just a different confidentiality context as meeting with an assessor beforehand, I feel a bit the same way dealing with GP receptionists etc. I guess I have to assume they all operate under the same code of conduct.

Yes I agree. It needs to be explained to the professional in question. 

You'll need to judge who to tell. In general if it would affect what they offer and how they do it, then say.
