​
STEP 1: Quick Self-Discovery
Start by taking one of the free screeners listed below for autism or ADHD.
It’s a low-pressure way to explore whether neurodiversity might be shaping your experience.
​​​
STEP 2: Go Deeper
If the screeners show signs of autism or ADHD, you can choose to dive into an "in-depth" assessment.
Our assessment specialists (part of Adult Autism Assessment) have received additional assessment training to work with adults and understand how this plays out in relationships.​​
*Disclaimer
This questionnaire is designed to offer helpful insights and support self-reflection. It can be a useful starting point to increase understanding and many individuals find it valuable for identifying patterns and starting meaningful conversations—whether with a partner, therapist, or coach.
​
That said, this tool is still in development and has not been validated through formal scientific research. While the questions are based on commonly reported experiences, the questionnaire’s reliability and accuracy have not been formally established. It is not intended to diagnose any condition or replace professional evaluation.
​
For personalized guidance, we encourage you to consult with a neurodivergent-affirming clinician.​
