Recommendations for private autism assessments needed please!

Hi All,

I am a 27 year old female who is displaying some traits of adult autism. My GP has referred me to a local service but i don't wan't to wait so long and I have the means to go private.

Please can you recommend any private assessment providers (either online or in London)?

So far I have looked at Avenue Therapies, Autism Unravelled, Psychaitry UK and RTN mental health solutions. Anyone have any experience of these providers?

From what I have read, a "good" assesment would include:

  • Initial questionnaire
  • Interview with me
  • Interview with family member
  • DISCO/ADOS-2 assesment tool use
  • Consulting GP or other medical professionals
  • Feedback, recommendations and formal report

Please can you let me know if there is anything else I should be checking for before agreeing to an assessment?

Thank you!
