Families in Carlisle and the surrounding areas often face long waiting times when seeking clarity around autism. At Branching Minds ASD, we provide a responsive and supportive private pathway for children and young people aged 2–18.
Although we are based in Dumfries, we work closely with families across Cumbria through accessible online assessments and tailored support packages.
Every family’s journey is different. Some parents notice early developmental differences; others seek help with school, emotional regulation, or communication. Whatever brings you to us, we help you understand your child’s needs, access a high-quality autism assessment, and put practical support in place with or without a formal diagnosis.
We offer a comprehensive range of services for families in Carlisle and across Cumbria:
Penrith, Brampton, Wigton, Longtown, Keswick and surrounding areas.
Do I need a diagnosis to start support?
No many families begin working with us before pursuing an assessment.
Are your assessments recognised?
Our reports are widely accepted within educational settings, NHS and by other professionals.
If you’re based in Carlisle or anywhere in Cumbria and are looking for clarity, guidance, or a private autism assessment, Branching Minds ASD is here to help.
