Autism support for Atkinson families

Families from Atkinson often come to us when anxiety, sleep, attention or mood problems make school or home life harder for an autistic child, teen or adult. We can coordinate with Timberlane Regional High School teams and outside therapists when families want that.

Living in Atkinson

Atkinson is a small, mostly residential town on the Massachusetts border, known for its rolling conservation land, the Atkinson Country Club and the historic Kimball Public Library. Many residents commute to Haverhill, Salem or along I-495, and teens attend Timberlane Regional schools with Plaistow, Danville and Sandown.

  • Psychiatric evaluation when autism is suspected, and referral for formal developmental or neuropsychological testing when needed
