ADHD & Autism Assessments (Adults only)

A(u)DHD Assessments are billed per session, at my full rate (or sliding scale, if applicable). The process is designed to flow as follows, with flexibility to accommodate my and your personal needs and capacity:

• 60 min Intake ($225)

  • your basic info

  • brief overview of your mental & physical health history

  • motivations for the assessment & consent to services

  • policies to keep you & your information safe 

• Interview + Screeners ($800+)

  • spread out over 4 weekly, 1hr sessions

  • any additional interview or screening sessions will be billed at 50% of the normal or sliding rate

    • you can save time by completing screeners outside of session

• Feedback Sessions ($200-$600)

  • reviewing/interpreting results

  • collaborative report drafting ($400-$600)

    • detailed individual report (2-3 sessions)

    • reports for informal/personal use only may take just 1 session

• Post-Assessment Support & Planning (8–12 sessions, according to your specific needs):

  • Sensory Care Plan (2-4 sessions)

    • collaboratively developed

    • environmental setups

    • scheduling/routines, activities, & tools

  • Accommodation Letter(s)*

    • ESAs or service dogs

    • college/university supports

    • workplace arrangements

  • Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)

    • developing coping skills & management tools

    • plan for ongoing support (e.g., longer-term therapy options, medication management, etc.)

    • deciding whether & when to unmask

    • responding to friends, family, employer, school, etc.

    • accessing supportive resources & communities

The baseline fee for an assessment + summary letter, charged at my full rate, will be $1,225, spread out over 6+ weeks. The total cost & length of a more in-depth process will vary, according to your specific needs & wishes (e.g., completing the online screeners independently vs. during session, extra time needed to process & respond to questions, taking breaks due to overwhelm, etc.)

Deciding which plan is best for you:

• What are your reasons for getting assessed?

  • improved self-understanding

  • confirm a self-diagnosis

  • pursue accommodations

  • access medication

  • something else?

• Do you want/need a new therapist?

• If you have a therapist already:

  • are you planning to return to work with them?

  • what is your therapist's capacity for supporting your post-assessment needs?

• What is your financial situation? (see the sliding scale guidelines)

• Are there other things you need support with (e.g., applying for welfare benefits, building/refining a medical team, etc.)?

• Considerations for pursuing assessment in the current climate

*While I am authorized to conduct assessments, generate reports, & write accommodation plans/letters, some entities may not accept them because I don't have a clinical or medical doctorate. Please check the requirements for your intended audiences.
