About Us
Today, many children with Autism Spectrum Disorder are diagnosed at a young age, and provided with specific instruction in the "hidden rules" of social interaction to help them compensate for the social-communication component of their Autism Spectrum Disorder. But what about those kids who slipped through, unrecognized and ultimately undiagnosed? Or worse yet, misdiagnosed? This is the question we are working to answer
Did you always seem to be been a misfit as a child, labelled as "weird", "defiant", "beligerant" or worse?
Are you good at your work, yet never able to keep a job?
Are you struggling with the sights and sounds (or even smells) of the world that everyone else seems not to notice?
Could Autism be why?Let's replace offensive labels with a real diagnosis; and replace discrimination with understanding.AUTISM DOES EXIST!
This practice is focused on diagnosis and connection to community supports for adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders. Ongoing care and prescriptions are beyond the scope of this practice and should be managed through your Family Physician.
