You can expect to pay between $1,325 - $1,855 for everything. We charge an hourly rate ($265) and most evaluations require between 5 and 7 hours of investment from the psychologist (clinical interview, testing procedures, reviewing data, report writing, consultation with professional colleagues, and feedback meeting).

Please read the example superbill (below) to see how the charges break down. We want to be fully transparent with our pricing, and we never want you to get into a situation where you don't know exactly what to expect ahead of time. 

Hopefully. It all depends on your health insurance plan. Please contact your health insurance to see if you would receive any reimbursement if you submit a claim for ADHD testing. Usually the best way to verify your benefits is to call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask a representative the following questions:

(1) Is ADHD assessment covered in my plan?

(2) If so, are there any steps I need to take in order for it to be covered (pre-authorization, referral from primary care physician, etc.)?

(3) Do I need to meet my yearly deductible before an ADHD assessment is covered? (If so, can you please explain to me how my deductible works?)

(4) How much would be covered if I do the assessment at Northfield Dynamic Therapy, which would be considered "out-of-network"? Note -the example superbill (below) has all the information your insurance company might want to know.

(5) If ADHD assessment is not covered, will it still count toward my deductible if I submit a documentation of payment?

We are more than happy to help you sort through this process of verifying benefits. We never want you to get into a situation where you don't know exactly what to expect regarding payment.

Here is an Example Superbill that you can use when calling your health insurance. It includes all the information your health insurance will need about our practice.

Yes! For adults ages 18+ who are wanting/needing a formal diagnosis. Most adults can determine for themselves if they are autistic, but sometimes your university, employer, or other organization needs you to have a diagnosis from a professional. Our assessment process will help you understand if you are autistic, and will also help you better understand your unique strengths and struggles.

We include an autism screening tool in all of our ADHD evaluations because ADHD and autism are so highly correlated. After seeing the results of your autism screen, you are given the choice if you want to continue with the autism assessment or not.

If you are interested in understanding more about the connection between autism and ADHD, you can geek out and read this 2018 article that will give you a 'deep dive" summary.  If you'd rather have a synposis, here is a quote from the article, "An estimated 30 to 80 percent of children with autism also meet the criteria for ADHD and, conversely, 20 to 50 percent of children with ADHD for autism. Given the size of the overlap, scientists are beginning to rethink the relationship between the two conditions and to look for common biological roots."

Both! A majority of people can do the entire assessment process online.

However, there are a select few situations where we would want you to come into our office for specific tests that are done best in-person. The primary reason for an in-person assessment is if you want an intelligence test to be part of your ADHD assessment. An intelligence test is not needed in diagnosing ADHD; however, if you plan to request accommodations for the GRE, LSAT, MCAT in the future you will probably need an intelligence test to be part of your ADHD assessment. The intelligence testing takes an additional 2-3 hours and will cost you an additional $530-795.

Our physical office is located in downtown Northfield at 220 Division Street (right across from the Northfield Public Library).
