Autism Diagnostic services
MSA can offer different Autism diagnostic pathways.
A number of professionals in our team are trained to undertake Autism diagnostic assessments using standardised tools including the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2 (ADOS 2) and 3Di. We are able to provide assessments that include input from clinical psychology, speech and language therapy, education and psychiatry.
Alternatively, we can undertake an assessment for indicators of Autism during the initial MSA assessment. This can help to ascertain whether a formal diagnostic service is further required.
Although we can offer diagnostic assessments we prefer to do this alongside therapeutic and educational interventions.
Training
MSA offer a variety of opportunities for training to parents, professionals and schools.
Workshop, courses and conferences are advertised from time to time and bespoke training can be offered by a variety of professionals.
Past courses/conferences/talks have included Parenting Through the Senses, ASD Girls Conference, Dr. Tony Attwood Conference, Understanding Anxiety & ASD, Behavioural Management, Therapeutic Crisis Intervention approaches, to name a few.
Contact us for further details and enquiries.
Our Professional Network
Following assessment, we recognise some areas of need may not be met by the MSA team. In these circumstances we can call on our wider professional network and arrange for a young person to receive the required support and intervention.
