If you suspect your child has autism or your child has been referred to the Canadian Psychotherapy Centre for an ASD test, you aren’t alone. Our compassionate and caring team is here with you every step of the way. Determining their strengths and weaknesses can help you give them the best future possible.
At Canadian Psychotherapy Centre, we aim to identify ASD-related challenges, along with your child’s strengths and potential. The insights from this assessment can help guide therapeutic and educational interventions tailored to their specific needs.
Besides psychoeducational and ADHD assessments, we offer testing for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The evaluation is suited to a child/teen who potentially has high-functioning ASD.
A proper diagnosis and understanding of how your child’s brain functions will help them get the right tools and support to reach their full potential. Through an ASD Assessment, we evaluate a person’s cognitive ability, processing skills, language skills, social skills, academic capability, and view of the world.
Many children with ASD — especially those who have the support and strategies they need — can achieve happiness and success throughout their lives.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) testing aims to understand an individual’s developmental, cognitive, and behavioural profile. This testing helps diagnose ASD and guides future intervention and educational strategies. Typically, the assessment process involves:

Initial screening tools may involve questionnaires or checklists. Testing further assesses:
The final step involves providing recommendations for interventions, therapies, educational supports, and accommodations. This plan is designed to support the child’s development, enhance their strengths, and address their specific needs.
