Hi everyone

Can anyone recommend a good psychologist or psychiatrist, etc, to look into getting a diagnosis for AS in the Austin, Texas area for an adult male?

Thanks for your help!

I went here to get a diagnosis: http://www.centralaustinpsychology.com/

Good thing is, they take most of the major insurance plans, which is awesome. I only paid about $300 out of pocket for a $4000 diagnosis.

I don't think he does a good job picking up on co-morbids though. I had to go elsewhere to get documentation for accommodations for NVLD, even though his testing results plainly showed a whopping case of it, and I may have to go elsewhere still to identify a co-morbid condition I likely have that probably should have been picked up originally -- based on the information gathered.
