What Our Patients Have To Say
Why Choose Us?
Full Diagnostic Assessment
By choosing Oxford CBT you get the benefit of pre-screenings for ADHD and autism.
This ensures you are guided toward the appropriate path for a full assessment or, in some cases, to determine if a full assessment is unnecessary.
This approach promotes better practice, reduces unnecessary costs when an assessment isn’t required, and ensures a quality-focused assessment and support plan.
Adapted CBT for Autism and ADHD
At Oxford CBT, we offer Adapted Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), a specialised approach tailored for individuals with autism and ADHD. Our clinicians are extensively trained in understanding the unique ways these conditions impact thoughts, behaviours, and emotions.
This means clients receive personalised support that considers their specific needs, helping them develop practical coping strategies in a comfortable and supportive environment. Adapted CBT ensures that therapy is accessible, relatable, and effective for those with neurodiverse experiences.
Quick Access to Private Autism Assessment and Supportive Care
Oxford CBT provides private autism assessments for people of all ages, offering timely support to help you and your family gain clarity and guidance through a professional autism diagnosis and personalised recommendations. Our services are designed to help you understand the specific needs of your child or yourself, ensuring that you have the right information and resources to navigate the next steps confidently.
Understanding Autism and Autism Assessments
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) encompasses a range of conditions that affect social interactions, behaviour, and learning. Autism represents a different way of experiencing the world and is not something to be “cured.” However, with effective autism assessments and support, autistic individuals—whether children or adults—can thrive with the right interventions tailored to their unique strengths and difficulties.

Evidence-Based Autism Diagnosis and Recommendations
Our clinicians utilise the latest research-backed methods and tools to deliver an accurate autism diagnosis and actionable recommendations. Through our in-depth assessments, we aim to provide a clear understanding of your or your child’s needs and strengths, empowering families with the information they need to provide effective support in managing daily challenges and promoting overall health and well-being.
What to Expect During Your Private Autism Assessment
Oxford CBT’s private autism assessments begin with a 90-minute consultation tailored to explore the specific needs and behaviours of each person, whether an adult or a child. This initial session focuses on understanding communication, social interactions, and any unique difficulties that may impact day-to-day life at home, school, or in other settings.
Our clinicians work closely with families to gather essential information through well-established screening tools, such as:
- CAST – used for autism screening in children
- ASSQ – helpful for identifying traits of high-functioning autism
- RCADS – a tool for evaluating anxiety and depression levels
If indicators of autism are identified during this consultation, further autism assessments will be recommended to provide a comprehensive understanding of individual needs.
Comprehensive Report and Tailored Recommendations
Upon completion, a detailed report summarises the diagnosis findings and provides specific recommendations for ongoing support. This includes practical strategies, resources, and potential next steps to help you or your child manage difficulties effectively and thrive, whether at home, school, or beyond.
Please note: One aspect of the autism assessment will need to be completed face-to-face. If you have any concerns about this please call us on tel:01865-920077 or email contact@oxfordcbt.co.uk
