We offer Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS-2) assessments, a tool used to assess and support a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This assessment is commonly requested by paediatricians, psychologists, and other healthcare professionals to provide a clearer understanding of a child’s social communication, interaction, and behaviour.

​

We help families in Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Gold Coast, South-East Queensland and surrounds access support as soon as possible!

​

What is an ADOS-2 Assessment?

The ADOS-2 is a structured, play-based and interactive assessment designed to evaluate key areas related to autism, including:
✅ Social communication skills
✅ Play and imaginative use of materials
✅ Nonverbal communication (gestures, eye contact)
✅ Repetitive behaviours and restricted interests

​

Our speech pathologists use a range of age-appropriate activities to observe how a child interacts, responds, and communicates in different scenarios. The results help provide valuable insights for families and professionals involved in the diagnostic process.

​

Quick Turnaround for Faster Support

We understand that families often face long wait times for ADOS-2 assessments, which can delay access to support. That’s why we prioritise a fast turnaround, ensuring families receive their results as quickly as possible. Our detailed reports outline key findings and can be provided directly to your paediatrician to support the diagnostic process, helping to streamline access to further assessments, therapies, and early intervention services.

​

Do I Need a Referral?

While an ADOS-2 assessment is typically requested by a paediatrician or psychologist as part of the diagnostic process, you do not need a referral to book an assessment with us.

If you have concerns about your child’s development, we can guide you through the next steps.
