Autism and PsychoEducational Assessments in BC, NS, and ON

Dr. Trista Keating is a registered psychologist in British Columbia, Ontario, and Nova Scotia.

Approximately every 6 weeks, Dr. Keating spends 3–4 days in Victoria, BC, where she conducts in-person autism/neurodiversity and psychoeducational assessments out of her office at 1026 Fort Street.

​

The Autism assessments will adhere to the British Columbia Standards and Guidelines for the Assessment and Diagnosis of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. These evaluations are thorough, incorporating a detailed developmental interview with the child's parents or guardians (ADI-R) and a structured observation of the child (ADOS-2). Additionally, the assessment process includes evaluations of cognitive abilities, adaptive functioning, and developmental history to assist in crafting an appropriate treatment plan. Please note, speech and language assessments are not currently available at this location.

Starting in 2026, Dr. Keating  and Faith Comeau will also offer in-person assessments in Halifax. In addition, Dr. Keating provides virtual assessments to clients residing in Nova Scotia, British Columbia, and Ontario allowing families across these provinces to access comprehensive psychological services from the comfort of their homes.
