Seventeen questions that profile four separate patterns — attention, impulsivity, social communication, and routines and sensory needs. You see the result immediately, with a straight answer on whether a formal assessment is worth booking or whether it is too early to tell.
ADHD and autism share surface behaviours with anxiety, hearing difficulty, sleep deprivation, learning disorders and plain developmental variation. That overlap is exactly why screening online is useful for deciding whether to act — and useless for deciding what your child has.
Assessments at eMbrace are conducted by RCI-certified clinical psychologists across our Vasant Kunj, Gurugram and Malviya Nagar centres, with a developmental paediatrician involved where a medical opinion is needed. Ask us for the current fee schedule on your intake call — we quote it upfront, in writing.
Yes, and it is common — the two co-occur in a substantial share of cases, and since 2013 they can be formally diagnosed together. It is also possible for one to imitate the other: a child who cannot follow classroom language may look inattentive, and a child with severe attention difficulties may miss the social cues that build friendships. Untangling that is exactly what a proper assessment is for.
Autism can be reliably identified in many children from around 18–24 months, and early support in those years makes a measurable difference. ADHD is usually diagnosed from about six, because before that the behaviours overlap heavily with normal preschool development — but younger children with significant difficulties are still assessed and supported, just under a different framework.
A diagnosis is a key, not a label. In practice it is what unlocks school accommodations, board exam concessions under CBSE and IB provisions, a UDID card where applicable, and therapy that is actually targeted rather than generic. Families who wait usually tell us later that the delay cost their child more than the diagnosis ever did.
Schools generally need a formal psychological report from an RCI-certified clinical psychologist, listing the assessment tools used and the recommended accommodations. Your free guide includes a ready-to-send letter template for requesting classroom accommodations, and our reports are written in the format Delhi NCR schools and examination boards expect.
History-taking, feedback and most therapy work well online, and we support families across India and abroad this way. The direct assessment components — especially ADOS-2 — need to be done in person, at one of our three centres.
A free 15-minute call with our intake team is often enough to know whether an assessment, a few therapy sessions, or simply some home strategies is the right next step. No obligation, no waiting list to join, and a clinician — not a call-centre — on the other end.
