Autism Assessments - Santa Clara County

[Whitney Longoria]

Hi everyone,

I think I might be autistic, and I recently took some online assessments that seem to confirm my suspicion, and I now want to get an official assessment to receive a diagnosis. Is there anyone on here who is familiar with any doctors in the Santa Clara County area (or general Bay Area) that will do the assessment? I'm also wondering if this is or could be something that is covered by insurance, and if so, how to go about making sure it's covered as well.

Thanks for the support!
Whitney

Welcome!

Insurance coverage depends on your plan, so you'll want to check with your provider.

You may wish to consider Dr. Nicole Hess and Dr. Rebecca Schilling in San Jose. Both of them are PhD psychologists who specialize in ASD.
