Grand Rapids Autism Spectrum Disorder Testing

Autism, sometimes referred to as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), is a complex disorder related to brain development that can cause massive behavioral and communication challenges. The testing and diagnosis of ASD are different since no two cases are similar, and autistic people often have varying support needs.

At Sollars & Associates, we offer comprehensive ASD testing in Grand Rapids for children and adults. However, the bottom line is that there is no specific testing for autism. You just have to monitor the differences in behavior, communication, and socialization. Our professionals are well versed with this disorder and equipped to perform effective ASD testing.

Symptoms of Autism

Signs and symptoms of ASD vary from mild to more severe behavioral issues. Some common early concerns that can lead to testing include:

  •   Language deficits
  •   Developing obsessive interests in some objects
  •   Temper tantrums
  •   Sensory integration problems
  •   Increased sensitivity to the way things taste or smell

Our counselors and therapists are committed to providing the best possible assessment and testing to people of all ages.

 

Can Adults be Diagnosed with ASD?

The simple answer is yes. At Sollars & Associates, we look at the patient’s medical history and watch their behaviors to detect autism. We understand that it’s challenging to diagnose adults due to long history of related diagnoses, but we strive to do our best to provide you with suitable test results.

After an intense assessment, we will provide a comprehensive report detailing:

  •   The underlying autism problem
  •   Effort on testing
  •   Information about the patient’s medical history
  •   Language skill capabilities
  •   Details about Visuospatial abilities
  •   Assessment on executive skills
  •   Emotional and personal functioning
