What this is, in plain language

The Lifespan Autism Clinic offers autism evaluations and short-term psychotherapy for people of all ages referred for possible autism or another neurodevelopmental condition, plus parent training, school consultations and vocational support, in person or by telehealth.

Written from what the provider publishes, to save you decoding it. It describes the service; it is not our view of how good it is.
