Private Autism Assessments
Whether it’s for yourself or a loved one, a formal autism assessment can be a vital step forward for understanding how we move forward in our lives with positivity.
MLUK delivers a high quality, ethical autism assessment service for private paying clients. Providing in-person assessments as well as video assessments, we also offer tailored, bespoke aftercare that includes signposting for further expert support.
How to Get an Autism Diagnosis
Our expert assessors have training in ADOS-2, the internationally recognised gold standard for diagnosing autism. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a difference, not a disease; it is something that people are born with, but may not be diagnosed until later in life.
An autism assessment does not guarantee a diagnosis will be confirmed, however it will provide clarity and our team will provide aftercare and support no matter what the result of the assessment.

Autism Assessment Services FAQs
Find answers to common questions about our services and how we can assist you.
How do I book an autism assessment?
Do I need a GP referral to have an autism assessment?
No, you do not need a referral from a GP or any other healthcare professional to access our services - you can self-refer at any time. With lengthy waiting times for public healthcare routes, we cater for individuals, parents, and caregivers who wish to proceed as soon as possible.
How do you approach assessing children and young people?
We take a child-centred approach to every autism assessment, ensuring that children and young people feel comfortable, supported, and understood throughout the process. We work closely with parents, carers, and where appropriate, schools, to build a clear picture of each young person's strengths, needs, and experiences.
Our aim is to make the assessment as positive and reassuring as possible, while providing clear guidance, practical recommendations, and signposting to relevant support services. Helping children and young people thrive socially, emotionally, and academically is at the heart of everything we do.
What is included in the price of my assessment?
The price covers every stage of your journey, from pre-assessment screening questionnaires and clinical interview sessions to multi-disciplinary team reviews. You will also receive a highly detailed, comprehensive diagnostic report, followed by bespoke post-assessment aftercare.
Is it too late to get an autism assessment as an adult?
Absolutely not. A formal autism assessment can offer profound personal clarity, open doors to workplace adjustments, and help you access targeted support.
Where are your in-person autism appointments held?
Our in-person autism assessments can be arranged at a location that is convenient for you, on a date and time that best fits your family's needs. We understand that every adult, child, young person, and family is different, so we aim to offer a flexible and accessible service.
Where appropriate, we can also explore conducting assessments remotely via Microsoft Teams if this is a more suitable or preferred option. Our priority is to ensure the assessment process is as comfortable, convenient, and stress-free as possible.
