What Next After Your Autism Diagnosis
A Practical Guide to Understanding Yourself and Your Identity Moving Forward
Receiving an autism diagnosis can be a significant and often complex moment in a person’s life. For many people, it brings relief, clarity, questions, and sometimes a mixture of emotions that can take time to process.
This 50-page professionally designed digital guide is intended to support individuals in the period following autism identification. This resource provides a thoughtful introduction to common experiences, questions, and areas of exploration that many autistic people encounter as they begin to understand their diagnosis.
Written in accessible language and grounded in a neurodiversity-affirming perspective, this resource encourages readers to explore their identity, reflect on their experiences, and consider practical ways to support their wellbeing.
Developed by Amanda Moses, a neurodivergent psychologist, the guide combines gentle psychoeducation with reflective exercises designed to help individuals better understand themselves and the broader autistic experience.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Therapy Tools and Clinical Templates
Are these therapy tools ready to be used in sessions with clients?
Yes. Most of the clinical tools are designed to be used directly in therapy and assessment sessions.
Each therapy manual and guide include structured worksheets, reflection exercises, and homework activities that can be introduced in-session and used between appointments. Printable materials are provided so they can be used collaboratively during sessions or shared with clients for ongoing work.
Where relevant, I have also included guidance for clinicians on how to introduce each tool, explain its purpose, and integrate it meaningfully into therapeutic work. The intention is to support active, collaborative therapeutic processes.
Who are these resources designed for?
These resources are designed primarily for psychologists and allied health professionals working in assessment and therapy settings.
They are used by provisional psychologists, early-career clinicians and more experienced practitioners seeking structured, ethically grounded tools.
Resources within the Understanding Neurodivergence Series are also suitable for neurodivergent community members seeking education and self-reflection.
Can I adapt the templates and tools to suit my own practice style?
Yes. All templates are designed to be flexible.
You are encouraged to adapt language, structure and formatting to suit your theoretical orientation, client population and workplace requirements. They provide a strong foundation while allowing professional judgement to remain central.
Can I share these resources with colleagues or students?
Resources are licensed for individual professional use and are not intended for redistribution or resale. If colleagues or students are interested, please direct them to the website to access their own copies.
Can these clinical tools support autism and ADHD assessment work?
Yes. The diagnostic intake tools and report writing guides are designed to support autism and ADHD assessments across the lifespan.
The intake questionnaires assist with gathering detailed information that standard screening tools often miss. They give clients space to reflect on their experiences before assessment and support the collection of meaningful collateral information where appropriate. This helps streamline your process while maintaining clinical depth.
The report writing templates and guides provide a clear structure for organising findings and communicating diagnostic outcomes respectfully and thoroughly. They are particularly useful for clinicians who want a clear, reliable framework for report writing that can be adapted for each individual client.
All tools are grounded in neurodiversity-affirming practice, supporting strengths-based language and thoughtful formulation. They are designed to support clinical judgement and formal training.
Are these resources suitable for early-career psychologists?
Yes. Many provisional and early-career psychologists use these tools to build confidence in documentation, formulation and intervention planning.
They provide structure without oversimplifying clinical complexity.
Are the NPE practice question modules included in the full NPE course?
Yes. The NPE practice question modules are included in the full version of the NPE preparation course.
They are available separately for those who prefer focused practice questions or who do not intend to purchase the full preparation package.
Do you offer payment plans for your psychology resources?
Flexible payment options are available at checkout through third-party providers such as Afterpay and PayPal, depending on eligibility and provider terms.
Amanda Moses Psychology is not affiliated with these providers. All approvals and payment arrangements are managed directly by the third-party provider.
