Autism Diagnostic Evaluations Services: What to Expect

Potential Signs of autism spectrum disorder

Seeing signs of Autism Spectrum Disorder in your child? Diagnostic Evaluations are essential.

There is no single symptom or behavior that identifies all individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Diagnostic evaluations identify a range of behaviors that are associated with autism, such as:

Avoidance of eye contact
Challenges with transitions or changes in routine
Intense sensory seeking
Speech and language delay
Unresponsiveness
Lack of social interest

A Diagnosis is the First Step

If you are seeing potential signs of autism in your child, our psychologist team is here to help. Our psychologist will determine if there are additional steps you may need to take to help your child with the concerns you have and, if so, they will guide what those next steps should be. InBloom is thrilled to be able to offer gold-standard diagnostic evaluations in select service areas for children between the ages of 18 months and 3 years old. If your child should need ABA therapy, an official autism diagnosis is required before therapy can begin. At InBloom, the diagnostic evaluation is comprehensive and includes the following:

A Thorough Parent Interview
Focused on learning about each child’s history and day-to-day functioning

Diagnosing Evaluation
A structured observation to administer the evaluation

Feedback / Comprehensive Diagnostic Report
A session for the psychologist and parents/caregivers to discuss the assessment and results, as well as review potential recommendations. Caregivers will receive a comprehensive diagnostic report.

The diagnosing Doctor is a gem!

My son was misdiagnosed by another provider 3 weeks prior to our evaluation with Dr. Jordan. We had a second opinion at InBloom, and thanks to Dr. Jordan properly diagnosing my son, he is now able to receive much-needed services.

My son is so happy here!

Every interaction I've had there with anyone at all has been a pleasant one. It's always scary to leave my son somewhere the first time but the way he is eager to go back the next day instantly made me feel at ease. Everyone is so compassionate and I can already see slight changes in how he carries himself. I definitely recommend this Learning Center.

The staff are so kind and so patient.

He’s only been going for 3 months and has already learned so much. Dad and I can definitely tell he’s learning and picking up on things he’s being taught. He’s always excited to go to “InBloom School.” He even asks on weekends. I highly recommend it.

Focused Teamwork

Caregivers are an essential part of our team.

Board Certified Behavior Analysts

BCBA

BCBAs (Board Certified Behavior Analysts) create the treatment plan which is then put into practice by RBTs (Registered Behavior Technician), so having a transparent, open line of communication with your BCBA is vital to your kiddo’s progress. Your BCBA also facilitates Caregiver Training sessions; structured one-on-one time for discussing your kiddo’s goals and development as well as practicing skills and techniques that will allow you and your family to continue making progress at home and in the community.

Registered Behavior Technician

RBT

Your RBTs are the ones who will be working directly with your kiddo and providing the treatment as outlined by the plan set by your BCBA. RBTs provide you with feedback and updates after each session, so be sure to continually discuss any improvements or challenges with them and the BCBA so the team can have all of the necessary information when considering the treatment plan that will best suit your child’s needs.

Anyone Providing Care

Caregiver

We ask that all caregivers remain engaged in their child’s course of therapy, as your involvement is crucial to their progress. Ultimately, the clinical team’s goal is to see that your child meets their goals and is able to utilize the skills in-center, at home, and across all other environments. Aside from ongoing Caregiver Training sessions, keeping in communication with your RBTs and BCBA about successes, challenges, and general observations greatly boosts the efficacy of your kiddo’s therapy.
