Neurodevelopmental Functional Capacity Assessment (NDFCA) in Mohali, Chandigarh & Patiala

At ACT for Autism, we believe that every child deserves a therapy plan as unique as their journey. No two children with autism are the same — and neither should their therapy be. That’s why we begin with a scientific, data-driven Neurodevelopmental Functional Capacity Assessment (NDFCA), the first and most crucial step in understanding your child’s strengths, challenges, and developmental profile.

Our goal is simple yet powerful — to help your child communicate better, connect meaningfully, and grow with confidence. Through NDFCA, we identify not just what to work on, but how to make progress measurable and meaningful.

We proudly serve families across Mohali, Chandigarh, Patiala, and Punjab.

Why an Assessment Is the Foundation of Effective Therapy

Many parents often wonder —
“My child goes to therapy, but I’m not sure if it’s really helping.”
“Why do I see progress in sessions, but not at home?”
“How do I know what’s actually improving?”

These questions are completely valid — and the truth is, without a comprehensive functional assessment, therapy can easily become guesswork.

At ACT for Autism, we go beyond surface-level observations or IQ reports. Our Neurodevelopmental Functional Capacity Assessment (NDFCA) provides a deep, domain-by-domain analysis of your child’s current abilities. It’s not about labels or general feedback; it’s about clear data on how your child is functioning across multiple developmental areas — communication, cognition, motor skills, emotional regulation, sensory processing, and more.

This assessment helps us identify which areas of the brain — such as the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, cerebellum, or midbrain — may require focused support. More importantly, it gives you, as a parent, a clear picture of where your child stands today, what progress looks like, and what steps to take next.

The Power of Data-Driven Therapy

Without a detailed baseline, therapy can miss critical areas of development. Progress often becomes subjective, and parents are left uncertain. With NDFCA, every session has a purpose, every improvement is tracked, and every challenge is addressed with precision.

We provide quarterly progress reviews with written reports, graphs, and measurable scores — so you’ll never have to rely on vague feedback like “he’s improving” or “she’s getting better.” You’ll see exactly which skills have improved, which need reinforcement, and how therapy is truly impacting your child’s growth.

Remember — NDFCA is not a diagnosis or IQ test. It’s a scientific functional analysis that reveals your child’s current capacity and the exact roadmap for effective, personalized therapy.

Why Choose ACT for Autism

ACT for Autism is among the few centers in Mohali, Chandigarh, and Patiala offering therapy based on Neurodevelopmental Functional Capacity Assessments. Our approach combines global best practices with local expertise to deliver therapy that is not just consistent, but also measurable.

We believe therapy should not be random sessions; it should be a structured, evidence-based journey. That’s why we provide detailed written reports, progress dashboards, and home-based strategies so that parents can actively participate and track progress confidently.

Our therapists are highly qualified professionals trained in international assessment tools and committed to building therapy plans tailored to each child’s unique developmental profile.

How Our Process Works

We begin with a Baseline NDFCA, a comprehensive assessment that includes parent interviews, direct child observation, and standardized tools. Once we understand your child’s current capacity, we design an individualized therapy plan — integrating speech therapy, sensory integration, behaviour support, and other relevant interventions.

Therapy sessions are engaging and built around micro-skill development, ensuring that each small improvement leads to meaningful real-world change. Every quarter, we conduct a progress review using data and visual graphs, adjusting goals as needed to ensure continuous growth.

This structured approach ensures that therapy remains focused, measurable, and results-driven.
