Adult assessment services
We offer various types of psychological assessments that provide a wholistic view of your individual mental health and learning needs.
-
Psychoeducational assessment
A psychoeducational assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that examines intellectual functioning, memory, attention, and academic skills to identify both strengths and areas of need. It can clarify learning challenges, such as learning disabilities or cognitive impairments, and provide insight into factors affecting academic or work performance. Attentional concerns, including ADHD, are also addressed as part of this assessment. The evaluation results in tailored recommendations for strategies, supports, and accommodations, including access to academic supports in college or university.
The fee for a psychoeducational assessment is $2,640. Additional testing—such as ASD or mental health assessments—may involve extra costs.

autism (ASD) ASSESSMENT
An adult autism assessment is a comprehensive evaluation that looks at your developmental history, current strengths, challenges, and experiences related to social communication and patterns of behavior. The goal is to determine whether autism best explains your profile and to provide clarity, self-understanding, and tailored recommendations for support. This assessment results in a clear “yes or no” answer about whether you meet criteria for ASD.
The fee for an autism-focused assessment is $1,540. If additional testing—such as cognitive, ADHD, or mental health testing—is required, extra costs will apply.
-
MENTAL HEALTH ASSESSMENT
A psychodiagnostic/ mental health assessment offers a comprehensive understanding of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It typically includes clinical interviewing about your history and current concerns and completion of questionnaires. A psychodiagnostic assessment can yield mental health diagnoses such as obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), major depressive disorder (MDD), bipolar spectrum disorders, etc. This type of assessment is helpful in advance of psychotherapy to inform a targeted treatment plan.
The fee for a mental health assessment is $1,540. Additional testing (such as ADHD or autism assessments) would involve extra costs.

ADHD ASSESSMENT
An ADHD assessment provides a clear understanding of attention, focus, and self-regulation challenges. An adult ADHD assessment looks at your developmental history, current symptoms, and daily functioning to understand whether ADHD may be contributing to your challenges. The process includes interviews, gathering collateral information from those who know you well, and completion of questionnaires. The goal is to provide clarity, an accurate diagnosis if appropriate, and personalized recommendations to support your work, relationships, and overall well-being.
The fee for an ADHD-focused assessment is $1,540. Additional testing (such as mental health or autism assessments) would involve extra costs. Attentional concerns are also assessed as part of the psychoeducational evaluation.
