A(u)DHD Assessments are billed per session, at my normal rate (or sliding scale, if applicable). The process is designed to flow as follows, with flexibility to accommodate your personal needs:
60 min Intake ($200)
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+ sessions)
collaboratively developed
environmental setups
scheduling/routines, activities, & tools
Accommodation Letter(s)
ESAs or service dogs
college/university supports
workplace arrangements
Solution-Focused Therapy
developing coping skills & management tools
plan for ongoing support (e.g., healing trauma)
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 $1,200, spread out over 6 weeks. The total cost & length of a more in-depth process will vary, according to your specific needs & wishes. If you would like support following your diagnosis, we can establish a therapeutic plan incorporating solutions-focused brief therapy & somatics. We also have the option of moving into a longer-term therapeutic relationship for ongoing, more in-depth support.
Deciding which plan is best for you:
What's your reason for getting assessed?
improved self-understanding
confirm a self-diagnosis
pursue accommodations
note: while I am authorized to conduct assessments & write accommodation plans/letters, some entities may not accept them because I don't have a clinical doctorate. Please check the requirements for your intended audiences.
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)
