Autism Spectrum Condition Service

The Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) Service offers assessment and diagnosis to those aged over 18 and living in Gloucestershire who do not currently have a diagnosis of autism spectrum condition.

We accept referrals from GPs and other Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust colleagues (e.g. the Mental Health Intermediate Care Team (MHICT), Gloucestershire Recovery in Psychosis (GRiP), recovery teams, inpatient wards and eating disorder teams).

Each assessment takes place over two appointments lasting approximately three hours each. If a diagnosis is given, you will be offered a six-session course which will help you to understand autism, and give you coping strategies for living with the condition.

We also have occupational therapists who can offer sensory sessions and additional coping strategies.

You can find out more about adult autism on the NHS website: Autism – NHS (www.nhs.uk)
