Autism

My son who is 12 has just had a court ordered ados assessment he scored 19 however this opinion has come from a psychologist who can’t diagnose him. Cahms say he doesn’t meet dsm 5 criteria. Which means they won’t treat him for autism. Can anybody help he is not in my care, and won’t be returning back to my care either
