Autism in Women

The psychologist is the professional who supports the evaluation of autism in women, a neurodevelopmental condition whose manifestations may be expressed differently from how they are usually described, which sometimes makes it go unnoticed.

What it involves: it is related to differences in communication, social interaction, and patterns of interest or behavior, which each person experiences in their own way.

Traits that are sometimes observed: effort to adapt to social settings, very specific interests, sensitivity to stimuli, or fatigue after situations with a lot of interaction.

Recognizing these characteristics and discussing them with a mental health professional allows for a better understanding of one's own experience. If you identify with these traits, seeking a respectful and specialized evaluation can provide clarity and guidance.
