Could I Be on the Autism Spectrum? A Guide to Pursuing an ASD Diagnosis (w/ Theresa Regan, Ph.D.)

Growing awareness about autism later in life has led a population of adults, including many diagnosed with ADHD, to suspect they may be on the spectrum. Though researchers and clinicians have successfully improved the early detection of autistic behaviors in young children, many adults remain misdiagnosed or not diagnosed at all. Myths about ASD perpetuate the lack of attention and supports for adults in our communities. The good news is that having the facts about ASD can lead to an accurate evaluation and effective treatment for most. In this hour-long webinar replay, Theresa Regan, Ph.D., explains the facts about autism in adults, factors contributing to misdiagnosis, and strategies to improve evaluation outcomes.
