What to Expect During the Assessment Process
The assessment process is designed to be thorough, compassionate, and tailored to your unique needs. It begins with a detailed conversation about your experiences, challenges, and goals.

From there, the evaluation may include structured interviews, questionnaires, and observations—all carried out in a supportive, judgment-free environment. Throughout the process, you’ll be an active participant, providing valuable insights and collaborating on the steps that follow.
At the end of the assessment, you’ll receive a clear, comprehensive overview of the findings, along with practical recommendations for next steps.

You Might Wonder if an ASD or ADHD Assessment is Right for You…
What are the signs that I might have ASD or ADHD?
Both ASD and ADHD manifest differently for each person, but common signs for ASD include difficulty with social interactions, sensory sensitivities, intense focus on specific interests, and struggles with changes in routine. For ADHD, signs include challenges with focus, impulsivity, hyperactivity (or mental hyperactivity), and difficulty with organization or time management. If these patterns have been present since childhood and significantly impact daily life, it may be worth seeking an assessment.
What does the assessment process involve?
The assessment typically includes an initial interview to gather a detailed personal and developmental history, questionnaires or standardized tests, and possibly input from family members or close contacts. For ASD, the assessment may focus on social communication, behaviors, and sensory experiences. For ADHD, it may focus on patterns of attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity.
How do I know if getting assessed is worth it?
An assessment can provide clarity and validation about your experiences, whether or not you receive a diagnosis. If you’ve been struggling with areas like social interactions, focus, or emotional regulation, an assessment can help identify whether these challenges are related to ASD or ADHD and guide you toward appropriate support and resources.
Will a diagnosis change anything for me?
A diagnosis can open doors to understanding yourself better and accessing tailored supports, accommodations, and interventions. For example, it might help you advocate for workplace accommodations, access therapy, or join supportive communities. Many people find it empowering to have a name for their experiences, but it’s important to remember that a diagnosis doesn’t define you—it’s a tool for growth and self-awareness.
Can adults still get diagnosed, or is this only for kids?
Absolutely, adults can be diagnosed with ASD or ADHD. Many people reach adulthood without a diagnosis because symptoms may have been misunderstood, masked, or dismissed during childhood. Seeking a diagnosis as an adult can provide insights into lifelong patterns and help address challenges you’re currently facing. It’s never too late to gain understanding and seek support.
Are you ready for a journey toward growth, love, and acceptance?
Embarking on the path to understanding yourself can be a profound journey filled with discoveries, insights, and the promise of a brighter future. At Love on the Autism Spectrum, our assessments are designed not just as evaluations but as gateways to a deeper connection with your own identity and potential.
