Understand the Full Picture
Empowering Individuals. Supporting Families.
At VMA Psych, we specialize in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) assessments for children, teens, and adults. Whether you're seeking diagnostic clarity, looking to access services, or better understand behaviour and communication differences, our process is compassionate, comprehensive, and tailored to each individual’s unique presentation. These assessments are completed by trained professionals who take the time to understand the full developmental picture, not just surface symptoms. We take a collaborative, neurodiversity-affirming approach to ensure clients and families feel supported before, during, and after the assessment process.
