Autism Evaluations for Young Children & Toddlers

---

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects social communication, social interaction, and patterns of behavior. Early, accurate diagnosis is essential for accessing the right support and setting the foundation for long-term success.

Flora Psychology provides comprehensive, private autism evaluations in the DFW area. Our approach is highly individualized designed for families seeking clarity, efficiency, and expert-level care without long waitlists.

Each autism assessment is conducted using a gold-standard, evidence-based approach to ensure diagnostic accuracy and meaningful recommendations.

• Standardized parent and caregiver questionnaires 
• Teacher input when available 
• Developmental and cognitive testing 
• In-depth clinical interview 
• Behavioral observations across settings (including school when appropriate) 

All evaluations include the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition (ADOS-2)—the gold standard for autism assessment.

Evaluations typically take place over 2–5 sessions, depending on your child’s needs. Following completion of testing, families receive a comprehensive, detailed report with individualized recommendations reviewed during a dedicated feedback session.

• Evaluations conducted entirely by a licensed pediatric psychologist 
• No technicians — expert, consistent clinical care 
• Fast turnaround time for results 
• Specialized expertise in early childhood autism (ages 2–7)
