Is This Autism?: A Companion Guide for Diagnosing

As a result, countless unidentified autistic people do not have reasonable access to proper identification or support.

It also provides guidance regarding cultural considerations, common mistakes, and how to communicate with and support clients through the diagnostic process. This very practical clinical guide provides a clear and neurodiversity-affirmative approach to autism assessment, particularly for autistic individuals who have previously been missed. It is relevant to all healthcare professionals who want to learn how to identify autism in their clients.
