How can I get my 15 year old tested for Autism?

How do you go about getting a 15 year old tested for autism? We are struggling with some issues related to one of his assignments, and I’m now realizing that the cognitive and behavioral therapy we did for a year when he was 6 wasn’t helpful.

Ask the pediatrician for a referral

I would think to call their counselor and discuss it with their counselor

Find a psychologist that’s covered by your insurance. Ask for an evaluation.

I actually have an virtual special education company. We have school psychologists who do online evaluations internationally and no waitlist. We offer a free consultation if you want contact me or schedule one on the website.

2 year waitlist or $3500 to go through private.

Where are you located? We went to our children’s hospital for one kid and a local mental health clinic for the other, if that helps.
