AUTISM Assessment SERVICES

Bluebird Psychology offers Autism assessments for school aged children, teens and adults. Our neuroaffirming and comprehensive assessments encompass an exploration of your developmental history, current behavioral traits, and other factors influencing your mental and physical well-being.

The MIGDAS is a specialized assessment tool tailored to evaluate developmental and adaptive skills in the context of autism. This instrument goes beyond traditional assessments, focusing on the distinctive challenges and strengths associated with autism across various domains.

Developmental Domains: The MIGDAS assesses a range of developmental domains, including communication, social interaction, play skills, motor skills, and adaptive behavior. This multidimensional approach provides a holistic understanding of an individual’s strengths and challenges in the context of autism.

Tailored for Autism Spectrum Disorder: This assessment is specifically designed to capture the unique characteristics of autism. It recognizes the diverse ways in which abilities and challenges may be demonstrated.

Objective Measurement: The assessment yields objective and standardized measurements, allowing for accurate and reliable evaluation of developmental and adaptive skills associated with autism.

Informed Interventions: Results from the MIGDAS guide the development of targeted interventions and support strategies. This ensures that interventions are tailored to the individual’s specific profile and address areas of need effectively.
