Private Autism Assessments, Bolton and UK-Wide

Whether you are considering an assessment for yourself, your child, or someone in your care, we offer a supportive and understanding clinical environment. Our autism testing and autism diagnosis services are accessible nationally online or, for some stages, at our Manchester base. Early autism diagnosis can make a significant difference in life outcomes by allowing earlier access to support, recommendations, and adjustments.

We use validated tools such as ADOS-2 for behavioural observations and ADI-R or 3Di for developmental interviews. If ADHD is a concern, we may include DIVA-5. These established assessments form the clinical core of our process.

AI Eye-Tracking, Faster, Smarter Diagnosis

Neurodivergems is uniquely partnered with a leading US firm specialising in AI-assisted eye-tracking autism assessment. This cutting-edge tool helps capture subtle, non-verbal autistic traits that traditional assessments can sometimes miss, especially in non-speaking individuals or those who mask their behaviours.

By objectively tracking eye movements, the technology adds another layer of reliability to our already validated testing methods. Incorporating AI eye-tracking not only speeds up the assessment process but also reduces subjective bias, ensuring results that are as accurate and fair as possible.

This innovation is available alongside our established clinical tools, helping clients in Manchester and across the UK achieve a faster and smarter autism diagnosis.
