🧩 Assessments For Adults and Children

Carolina Hall conducts comprehensive Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Assessments for both children and adults. She has worked with individuals on the autism spectrum since 2004 — first as a Behavioural Therapist, then as a Consultant, and now as a Psychologist.
Her deep understanding of autism allows her to approach each assessment with insight, care, and clinical precision.

Carolina is trained in the Gold Standard diagnostic tools:

• Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS-2)

• Autism Diagnostic Interview–Revised (ADI-R)

To ensure a well-rounded, accurate diagnosis, she collaborates closely with physicians, speech-language pathologists (SLPs), educators, and other professionals.
