The cost of assessment is based on several variables, including the cost of selected tests/materials, time spent interviewing the client and/or any informants (parents, teachers, spouses, etc.), school observations, test administration, scoring, interpretation, report-writing and feedback.
---
Given the highly individual nature of assessment, we provide cost estimates based on the average amount of time needed for similar referral questions or necessary testing batteries. We provide you with this proposal prior to the intake appointment, and disclose any changes to the estimated cost as soon as possible.
We work intentionally to identify the most cost-effective option for your referral question(s) by compiling the most streamlined and evidence-based battery possible-- all without sacrificing quality.
Additional sessions to process the results, review recommendations in greater detail, or receive support for specific treatment goals can also be scheduled with your examiner.
We strive to ensure the assessment process is clear, understandable and empowering— rather than overwhelming and disorienting.
We are happy to discuss the assessment process, including the rationale for a certain pricing estimate for your specific needs, prior to committing to the evaluation.

PLEASE NOTE: Many insurance companies require a pre-authorization before they will approve any claims submitted for partial reimbursement for out-of-network psychological assessment services. You will receive a completed Superbill at the conclusion of the assessment process, upon request.
COMPREHENSIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT
Starting at $2,100
We offer thorough assessments of one’s social/emotional functioning and mental health symptoms to clarifying many diagnoses listed in the DSM-5-TR. Our batteries include basic measures which assist in the identification of underlying neurodivergence (ADHD and Autism) which frequently co-occur with serious mental health conditions.
These assessment batteries will typically include a detailed clinical interview (typically 90-120 minutes) with yourself and/or an informant. We will send relevant measures to you and up to one informant following this appointment for you to complete online at your convenience. Additional informants (such as parents, partners, and teachers) can be included for an additional fee.
A feedback session (typically 60 minutes) is then scheduled to discuss the results. A brief (4-5 page) report is provided following the feedback, which will briefly summarize diagnostic conclusions and treatment recommendations.
This level of testing does not include IQ or academic testing.
These evaluations are typically used to support formal accommodations requests within the school, workplace, or government agencies, though confirming the necessary test battery will be up to the client prior to proceeding.
Your examiner will discuss whether a more in-depth evaluation will be necessary before proceeding.
---------------
COMPLEX PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT
(Includes cognitive and/or psychoeducational testing)
Starting at $3,600
In addition to the comprehensive psychological assessment process, we may recommend an expanded battery designed to evaluate your cognitive and intellectual functioning (e.g., IQ testing), basic memory functions, and/or psychoeducational abilities along with any additional areas of concern within the scope of your referral question.
This level of assessment includes a more in-depth report (typically 10-15 pages) expanding on your results and outlining individualized treatment recommendations.
----
Many cognitive, memory and learning differences often co-occur with neurodivergence, so an expanded understanding of how the brain is processing information can support a more comprehensive understanding of the client's needs.
We will be happy to discuss which level of testing is appropriate for your specific concerns before agreeing to move ahead with the evaluation process, and in many instances, may suggest starting at a lower-cost Tier unless a brief screener indicates a need to consider more in-depth exploration.

SECOND OPINION SERVICE FOR OUTSIDE PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS
$300/hour
Our Second Opinion Service provides a thorough review and interpretation of other professionals' psychological assessment reports, raw data, or diagnostic conclusions. This service offers a neurodiversity-affirming framework for providing deeper understanding, or more satisfactory or useful contextualization of these results or recommendations.
We aim to provide clarity and additional insights, considering strengths and differences rather than deficits, and orienting you toward next steps in a manner that honors the investment made and the goal(s)/function(s) of the evaluation. We may identify alternative explanations based on the data provided, or affirm the findings/conclusions made in a way that can be best understood.
