Hi ponderpher and welcome to WP.

I joined three days ago, and I hope that like me you'll find lots of help and support - including challenging that psychologists opinion if that's what you want.

Hi ponderpher, welcome to Wrongplanet!

If this psychologist doesn't specialize in ASDs, perhaps you might like to seek a diagnosis from one who is.

I seeked a diagnosis from a general Psychiatrist at Uni and he denied that I had AS, so I dropped him and saw another person who was more knowledgeable about the condition, and then he confirmed without a doubt that I had AS!

Good luck.
