[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For what purpose? If he just wants to understand more about himself, he can explore with a skilled therapist and get an unofficial diagnosis. That's good enough unless he needs additional accommodations.[/quote] Me again, reading more carefully. If he wants accommodations and doesn't currently have any, he will need a full evaluation -- whether a psycho-ed is good enough or he needs a neuropsych will depend on the school. Check with disability services about what documentation they need.[/quote] OP here. He has had accommodations for his adhd, but I think he’s wondering whether there would be different accommodations for autism. I think he’s wondering whether just wants a definitive diagnosis by a professional instead of him just thinking he is. Any suggestions for a therapist for adults that specializes in autism?[/quote]
