Thanks for the informative reply. Lately I've been wondering if I might be autistic...so if I want to seek testing, it would be best to see a psychologist or clinical social worker? Do I need to find someone who specializes in autism?

No problem!

Autism testing would be typically done by a psychologist. There are psychologists who specialize in autism, but as far as treatment, a clinical social worker might also specialize.

What you'll want to do is either ask your doctor to refer you directly to a clinic (or clinician), or just go ahead and call the mental health clinic yourself. They'll get a little bit of basic information from you, and you can tell them specifically that you were just diagnosed with anxiety/depression by your doctor and would like to be tested for autism. They'll set you up with the right provider who can do that testing, or hopefully be able to recommend another clinic if they don't have someone who can do that testing.
