Self-identification is valid and accepted by the Autistic Community.
WYW offers resources, guided webinars and 1:1 sessions to help you self-identify as autistic.
Our founder, Dasha Kolesik, is an autistic speech pathologist and autism assessor. As someone who has gone through the process of self-identification followed by formal identification, Dasha understands the challenges and benefits of this journey.
We're here to help individuals self-identify as autistic by providing resources and guidance to better understand themselves and their experiences. We are committed to providing a safe, welcoming, and inclusive space for all individuals seeking to better understand themselves and their neurodivergent identity.

The Autistic Self-Discovery Process
There are many different pathways to discovering that you're autistic.
Some choose to go directly to formal identification (also known as 'diagnosis'), while others choose to research it first and do some self-reflection prior to a formal assessment, while others bypass formal assessment/identification all together. This could be due to personal choice, or because of barriers in formal assessment, such as cost and availability.
While You Wonder is here to help you on your autistic self-discovery process and can help you self-identify as autistic, or help you prepare for formal identification.
Ready for an autism assessment?
If you're in Australia and would like a formal autism assessment, our founder provides these through our sister company, Neurodiscovery.
Assessments are conducted from the comfort of your own home via telehealth, using a combination of tools, including the MIGDAS. This is recognised as the most neuroaffirming assessment tool currently available and is known for its sensitivity to the high-masking autistic experience.
