What is Autism?
The autism spectrum encompasses a neurodevelopmental condition impacting social engagement, communicative abilities, and behavioral patterns. Those navigating life on the spectrum may experience distinct challenges in processing both verbal and nonverbal communication, managing sensory input, masking, and regulating repetitive behaviors. PACE Consulting provides thorough evaluative services to identify and analyze how these traits manifest uniquely in each individual, delivering comprehensive reports that help clients understand their specific presentation and symptom patterns.
Our Approach
PACE Consulting's approach to autism evaluation centers on thorough assessment and detailed analysis. Through comprehensive psychological evaluations, we identify specific patterns of strengths and challenges, providing clear documentation of how these manifest in your daily life. Our detailed reports offer insights into your unique profile and symptom patterns, helping you understand how various aspects of autism present in your specific case. This evaluation process results in a comprehensive document that can help inform future planning and connect you with appropriate resources for your identified needs.
What is the ADOS and who needs it?
ADOS stands for Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition. This is the gold-standard assessment tool for autism. It is for both children and adults of all ages, and it is administered in-person only. It involves tasks and conversation, and takes less than an hour.
But not everyone needs this assessment.
We administer the ADOS as a standard part of every child evaluation.
For adults, though, it is not part of our standard testing package.
The ADOS is only needed for adults who are applying for disability services with the County or State.
If you are an adult, and are NOT applying for disability services, please select a package that does NOT include the ADOS.
If you are an adult who IS applying for disability services, select a package that includes the ADOS.
