Asheville TEACCH Center

They never answer the phone. They never return messages. My referral was submitted almost 1 1/2 years ago - I had to drive there to verify they received it because again they won't answer the phone or return messages - and I still haven't heard back from them. Edited December 2023 - It's been over 2.5 years since they received my referral and I have yet to hear back from them. When I reached out to them last year, I was told adults on the autism spectrum were not a priority for them. Guess I'll keep waiting. Edited October 2024 (after Hurricane Helene) - It’s been 4 years since they received my referral and I still haven’t heard back from them. Thankfully Grandis Evaluation Center is testing adults and they finally take my insurance. After a 5 hour test that was thorough and in-depth with their trained psychologist (he might actually be a psychiatrist), I finally have the answers I’ve been waiting for. As for Asheville TEACCH, I’ll keep updating this review until I hear for them but I’m really hoping they either get closed down or new employees are brought in. They’re showing up as an autism resource when they’re not one, which is detrimental to the autism community.

The team at the Asheville TEACCH center is highly experienced, knowledgeable and compassionate. The TEACCH model, which focuses on supporting an individual's learning style and modifying approaches and the environment to help set them and their families up for success, was exactly what we needed. I couldn't be happier and highly recommend for testing and therapy resources.
