Autism

Understanding how you experience the world is not a limitation. It is a starting point.

Autism Spectrum Disorder affects social communication, sensory processing, behavior, and patterns of interest in ways that vary significantly from person to person. At Bay Wellness Group, we help children, adolescents, and adults gain clarity about their experience and access the support that fits their individual needs.

what it feels like

Processing the world differently is real. And it deserves to be understood.

Social situations that seem effortless for others can feel exhausting or confusing. Sensory experiences, sounds, textures, lights, and environments, may be more intense than what others around you seem to notice. Routines and predictability matter in ways that are hard to explain. Relationships can feel genuinely difficult to navigate, not because of a lack of care, but because the unspoken rules do not come naturally.

For children, these differences often surface at school. For adolescents, it can look like social isolation or intense frustration. For adults, many have simply spent a lifetime feeling different without ever having language for why.

our approach

Thorough evaluation using advanced assessment technology.

Our recommendations focus on practical supports that make a real difference in daily life.

At Bay Wellness Group, our autism evaluations use multiple assessment methods, clinical observations, standardized testing, and advanced diagnostic technology to provide a thorough and accurate picture of each individual's unique presentation. For young children we use EarliPoint, an FDA-authorized eye-tracking assessment tool. For older children, adolescents, and adults we incorporate Creyos cognitive assessment alongside clinical evaluation.

Because autism is not something that requires a cure, our recommendations focus on practical supports that help individuals improve daily functioning, communication, emotional regulation, and overall quality of life.

Autism presents differently at every age.

We conduct evaluations across the lifespan, from young children to adults.
