A start to finish training for masters level clinicians, from first inquiry call to the feedback session. Leave a with a clear process, a full toolkit and real confidence.
The Assessment Course
Autism and ADHD
Answers change lives.
For many adults, an autism or ADHD diagnosis doesn't arrive in childhood. It arrives at 32, or 47, or right after their own child is assessed.
Most clients have spent months or years researching before they ever say out loud "I think I'm Autistic." They deserve a clinician who meets them with curiosity, a clear process, and an answer.
Master's-level clinicians can diagnose. The barrier was never your license. It's training. That's what this course is for.
This course is for you if…
You're a master's-level clinician already grounded in the neurodiversity paradigm.
You see Autistic and ADHD traits in your caseload and want to name them with confidence.
You want to offer assessments as a standalone service or inside your therapy work.
You mostly see adults (teen considerations are woven in)

Paperwork & tools
Validated tools, why each one earns its spot, and how to send them without draining your client's executive function.
The clinical Interview
An affirming interview refined over 12 years. Room to fidget, pause, and ask for the question another way.
Determining diagnosis
Sort through overlap and co-occurring conditions, including the client who sits right on the cusp.
Report writing
Write for the person actually reading it. Strengths-based reports clients recognize themselves in.
The feedback session
Lead with the diagnosis, finish the report together, and make room for relief and grief. Then: welcome to the club.
