Getting an autism diagnosis in Columbus

Most Columbus families start with an evaluation

If your child hasn't been evaluated yet, ask your pediatrician for a referral to Chattahoochee Valley Regional Medical Center or a local developmental pediatrician. That's where most Columbus families begin. Once you have a diagnosis, we can start therapy within 2–4 weeks. Read: "How to get an autism diagnosis in Georgia" and "First steps after diagnosis."

Geography matters in Columbus

Geography shouldn't matter. But it does in Columbus.

Columbus sits on the Chattahoochee River, bordering Alabama. Historic downtown, spreading neighborhoods. A clinic appointment means driving time, your child arriving dysregulated before therapy starts. In-home therapy eliminates that. We come to you, downtown Columbus, nearby areas. Therapy happens where your child needs the skills.

Consistent care from the same BCBA

Your child works with the same clinician every time

Real clinicians with real roots here. Meet the team. Each BCBA carries a smaller caseload. Your child isn't a number rotating through a roster. Same therapist every session.
