Real Stories of Progress and Hope

Here at Autism Services Group we create an environment where vulnerabilities are not seen as weaknesses, they are seen as strengths and with the right knowledge and support you and your loved one’s well being, will flourish.

I recently completed training with the Autism Services Group and found it absolutely brilliant. Sarah and Joe were exceptional facilitators — knowledgeable, engaging, and incredibly supportive. The skills we learned were grounded in solid theory, presented in a clear and digestible way, and reinforced through practical, hands-on activities. I came away feeling more confident and better equipped in my work. Highly recommended!

I completed the ADOS training with Sarah and Jo last week. It was the best training I have ever been on. The level of understanding and knowledge they both have was incredible. I would highly recommend any practitioner who is thinking of training in this area to do the training with Sarah and Jo. Thank you both so much.

I can't recommend Sarah Phelan and Dr Jo Mathews as both autism assessment trainers and ADOS2 assessors enough. They have a deep understanding and knowledge of neurodivergence and they work not just in a neuro-affirming, kind and friendly manner, but also to the highest clinical and professional standards.

I traveled from Dublin and completed ADOS-2 training in March with Autism Service Group.The overall quality of the training was of such a high level.I could tell from the moment I arrived that Sarah,Jo and Mark were masters in the field and they explained the diagnostic process with such ease and patience. On top of this they made my stay so comfortable and were always willing to go the extra mile and look after us in any way they could.I immediately felt like it was a home away from home. I would recommend both the service and training to anyone who asks as it’s so emphatic,informative and professional.

I completed training with Sarah and Jo in a group setting and it was brilliant. The content was way more than I had anticipated in a really good way. The group was so welcoming and it was a safe place for questions and discussions. Sarah was fantastic and kept everything on time. I would highly recommend any training with the Autism Services Group Dublin.

Sarah delivered first class training. She is down to earth, patient and kind in her approach. Sarah is a highly experienced and knowledgeable professional in her field of work and I learned so much from her on the course. She also offered opportunities for attendees to make their contributions, which reinforced our learning, enabled us to share our own experiences and learn from each other. Sarah reassured and gave me peace of mind, when I was unsure of anything and after completing the course, I felt confident to practice what I had learned, with opportunities for ongoing support and shadowing to help build upon my competency.

I completed training with Sarah and Jo. The training was delivered over zoom and was given in an open and welcoming manner, it was educational, insightful and well explained. We received lots of tools and techniques in order to be able to carry the learning forward. We were offered additional learning as required and really felt part of the Autism Services Group family. I would highly recommend their services and I am looking forward to putting my learning into practice.

I cannot thank Autism Services enough for their outstanding support in diagnosing my child. From the moment we first made contact, the entire process was seamless and efficient. Kelly, Sarah, and Kate were absolutely amazing throughout the entire experience. They were not only professional but also incredibly caring, ensuring my child felt completely at ease during the evaluation. Their approach was thorough and compassionate, and it made a potentially stressful situation much easier for both my child and our family. I highly recommend Autism Services to any parent looking for expert care in a welcoming environment. Truly a wonderful experience!

Sarah is absolutely brilliant! We cannot recommend enough! She was calm - no judgement, professional, and put everyone at ease. Her bags of knowledge left us feeling ready to implement positive changes within the home and reduce challenging behaviours with out son which has benefitted the whole family hugely! Thank you!

A personal and positive experience. Such a help to have someone with direct experience of ASD sharing how it can impact day to day family life.

Autism Services Group were a pleasure to deal with when supporting my son with an assessment for dyspraxia. We had a call with Nicola beforehand to go through what would happen and she was so friendly and explained everything. The assessment itself was also very comprehensive and Nicola made sure it was a fun experience for my son who really enjoyed taking part in the different activities and didn't feel like he was being assessed but rather was enjoying competing with himself to try the different skills! The resulting report was also very comprehensive and easy to understand and was followed up by another call with Nicola to answer any questions we might have and give recommendations for my son in a home and school setting which were hugely helpful. Overall I was very pleased with Autism Services Group and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to other parents.

Dr Jo has been amazing throughout the assessment process. She was fantastic with my daughter and the ongoing support provided is second to none. The wait was much shorter than other private practices. 5* from me, would definitely recommend!
