Brief, focused evaluations to determine whether a specific mental health condition is present. The evaluation typically includes a comprehensive clinical interview and several measures or rating scales designed to assess for a particular condition.
This evaluation is best suited for preschool children, school-age children who have recently had a psychoeducational evaluation and need a specific diagnostic assessment, or those looking to determine whether a suspected diagnosis is present to facilitate treatment planning. Because this evaluation is limited in scope, recommendations and the ability to rule-out other conditions may also be limited.
Typically requires 3-4 hours of testing with the patient. Cost of these evaluations varies:
- Autism spectrum disorder diagnostic evaluation (ages 1.5-17): $1800 (fee after January 1, 2025: $2300)
- Autism spectrum disorder diagnostic evaluation (ages 18+): $2250 (fee after January 1, 2025: $2750)
- Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder diagnostic evaluation (ages 4-17): $1800 (fee after January 1, 2025: $2300)
- Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder diagnostic evaluation (ages 18+): $2250 (fee after January 1, 2025: $2750)
- Additional diagnostic add-on (if you would like an evaluation for more than 1 condition, such as to be evaluated for both ASD and ADHD): the above fee + $750 (after January 1, 2025: + $900)
- Hourly testing rate for other conditions: $275/hour (after January 1, 2025: $285/hour) with a school psychologist, $300/hour with a neuropsychologist (after January 1, 2025: rates will be $325/hour with Dr. Manfredi)
