Do you need a referral for autism testing?
👉 Most of the time — no, you don’t.
This is one of the biggest reasons families wait months (or longer) to get answers. Many parents assume they have to go through a pediatrician first—but in a private practice setting, you can often reach out directly to schedule an evaluation.
If you’ve been noticing things like:
• Delayed speech
• Limited eye contact
• Not responding to their name
• Repetitive behaviors
It’s okay to trust your instincts ❤️
Getting answers early can make a huge difference in:
✔ Understanding your child
✔ Accessing the right support
✔ Feeling confident in what to do next
We provide comprehensive autism evaluations in Williamsburg, VA using a collaborative SLP + OT approach—so you get a full picture, not just a score.
✨ No long waitlists
✨ Clear next steps
✨ Support every step of the way
Not sure if your child needs testing?
👉 DM or contact us via our website to schedule a free 10-minute consult
—we’re happy to talk it through with you.

I love this post so much that I think this deserves a permanent place on our feed! Thank you for the information posted along with the image, I encourage everyone to check it out! (And thank you to who I originally saw it shared from!) Early intervention is so important when it comes to literacy skills. It is a not a “wait and see” matter. If you find your child struggling, get them the help they need now before that learning gap widens and school becomes more challenging. We are here to help !

🎄🎅🏻🎄🎅🏻🎄🎅🏻🎄
This is a simple activity that can be recreated at home by printing pictures off of the internet or drawing your own. There are many ways to grade this activity from easy to more difficult.
Easy: Replicate an outfit choosing from a field of 2-3 clothing options
Moderate: Replicate an outfit choosing from a larger field with all clothing options
Difficult: Show the child a picture of the completed outfit, then take the image away to see if they can remember what clothing items were used / Give child verbal directions of which items to use and see if they can recall it as they do it

Other ways to use this activity:
-Have the child practice handwriting after they create an outfit (simple: green shoes, blue bow) or (complex: The gingerbread man is wearing a plaid shirt, red pants, and blue mittens).
-Create an obstacle course and use one clothing piece per repetition to keep child’s interest
-Give child a chance to use their own creativity by creating their own clothing combos
-Scatter clothing items around the room to encourage visual scanning skills when looking for a specific clothing item/items
-Tape large gingerbread and clothing pieces to a vertical surface to work on range of motion and upper body strengthening

Happy Thanksgiving! We hope that your hearts are happy and bellies are full today!
