Autism evaluations
At Sunbreak Therapy Services we provide comprehensive Autism evaluations for children elementry school aged and younger, suspected of having Autism. Parents participate in the entire evaluation process.
​
Our interdisciplinary approach involves team members from Psychology, Speech Pathology, and Occupational Therapy. These professionals will be working collaboratively, with a common goal, to make decisions about ASD diagnoses and sharing recommendations and resources. This allows Sunbreak to help support families by giving them a full picture of their child's needs. Our team is excited to offer these evaluations and possible ongoing treatment through speech and occupational therapy sessions.
