Thank you very much in advance

Not Manchester, but we used Axia-ASD in Chester.

Hi @Tiddlywinkly,

I wondered if you had any success of finding someone to complete this assessment for your daughter?

I'm looking for similar, we're based in London, but will travel for someone that specialises in diagnosis in girls.

Hi @landofgiants,

Thank you for this recommendation, I wondered, if not too much trouble, would you mind explaining the process of your private assessment, with Axia-asd and how old your daughter was at the time.

My daughter is 10 and I'm worried that she's constantly masking/camouflaging so much so that assessment/diagnosis might be difficult.

Many thanks 😊

We're still on the NHS waiting list. I tried to get a referral with Right to Choose, but got fobbed off by the GP. Might try again when I have the energy.

Hi @Tiddlywinkly,

I'm sorry that getting an assessment is proving challenging, it sounds really stressful. I hope you get a break through in the coming year.
