Dr. Jim Roche provides autism diagnostic services for children, adolescents and adults suspected of having autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or what was previously referred to as Asperger's Disorder.
Assessment costs vary from case to case, but do not exceed $1,950. Assessments for school related services for children and adolescents may need to include a psychoeducational assessment as well, which is required by school districts to develop an appropriate IEP (Individual Education Plan).
Additionally, Dr. Roche provides treatments and consultation for adults with ASD. This includes individual and couples therapy/counselling.
Finally, Dr. Roche provides behavioural consultation for problematic behaviours which present difficulties in daily life for you, your child or partner. Dr. Roche is a member of the ACT RASP and his services are covered by ministry funding for children under 19.

Dr. Jim Roche
I am a Registered Psychologist and Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in working with teens and young adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and what has been called Asperger's Disorder. My work with teens and young adults addresses school issues, sometimes psychoeducational testing, school observations, emotional issues and behavioural issues.
I am a member of the ACT RASP and am a registered behaviour consultant with them, and therefore can see children below the age of six using provincial funding. I provide autism diagnostic services and help parents become familiar with the many treatment modalities that are available to them. As a registered psychologist my services are also covered by most extended health care plans.
A number of patients see me for weekly 1-2 therapy, often addressing issues of anxiety, stress, depression or behavioural issues. I also see parents for parent education and sometimes for family or couples related counselling relating to the stress of dealing with the many aspects of ASD.
With most clients my focus is on either behavioural training, aimed at parents, caregivers or schools, or on social communications issues. I often use materials from Michelle Winner and her Social Thinking program. This includes curriculum materials such as "Social Behaviour Mapping," and "The Incredible Five Point Scale." I also teach a number of visual support techniques.
The methods I use are those that are considered by most school districts as "research based" and in use in those districts. As a previous POPARD provincial consultant for autism I am familiar with the methods, materials and curriculum used in most schools in the Vancouver/BC area and try to work in a manner that works well with what you should expect from the schools.
I also provide school based observations and consultations in both public and private schools.
I am a registered and licensed psychologist with over twenty five years of experience in this field. I also hold licenses and certificates in school psychology and as a teacher of special education, so I am familiar with what it's like to run a classroom.
