What Testing Actually Costs
Every evaluation: one clear price range, no guessing which price applies to you.
Testing for ADHD or Autism
For when you're seeking clarity on one condition specifically — a single diagnosis, thoroughly investigated, with a full written report.
Combined AuDHD Evaluation
For when ADHD and autism symptoms overlap, or you want both evaluated together from the start — one process, one coherent report, not two conflicting diagnoses from two different providers.
Every Evaluation, at a Glance
Every evaluation, sorted lowest to highest. Ranges reflect scope and complexity, confirmed exactly during your consultation call.
What Each Fee Covers
What's Included in the Cost?
The fee covers the entire process from start to finish, across three stages.
Consultation
Schedule a free consultation to speak with one of our psychologists about your needs.
Full Assessment
4–6 hours of testing across one or two sessions. You'll work out the exact details with your psychologist on the consultation call.
Feedback Session
After a few weeks of scoring and report writing, you'll sit down with your testing psychologist to review findings and recommendations. Some assessments skip this step and the report goes straight to the requesting party instead — an adoption or surrogacy agency, an employer, or your attorney.
How Do We Make Assessment Affordable?
We price below the average cost of testing in Los Angeles. But testing is still a real expense, for two specific reasons.
The Tests Themselves
Accurate, valid results require specific standardized testing materials. The cost of those materials is built into your fee.
The Hours Behind the Report
4–6 hours of testing, plus the hours it takes to interpret your results and write the full report you receive at your feedback session.
Are Assessments Covered by Insurance?
Some insurance plans reimburse for psychological testing. You're responsible for the full cost of the assessment upfront, and we provide a superbill — an itemized receipt with billing codes — for you to submit to your insurance for out-of-network reimbursement.
Fees FAQ’s
-
Our rates are $400/hour. If you email us or fill out the contact form, we can give you an estimate of the number of hours your client’s specific evaluation will take.
-
Most evaluations are paid in parts or payment plans. We have a retainer fee and then the final part of the fee is due at the time the evaluation is delivered to you.
-
You're not paying for two separate evaluations — you're paying for one combined process that happens to look at two conditions at once. A lot of the work overlaps: one clinical interview instead of two, one intake, one report, one feedback session. The combined fee reflects that overlap. It costs more than a single-condition evaluation because there's genuinely more testing and more to write up, but it costs meaningfully less than booking two separate evaluations would, because you're not paying twice for the parts that don't need to be duplicated.
-
We're a private-pay practice and don't bill insurance directly. What we do provide is a superbill — a detailed receipt with the billing codes your insurance needs — that you can submit for potential out-of-network reimbursement, depending on your plan. We also offer payment plans. We'll walk through the full cost and your options during your consultation call, so there are no surprises.
-
Yes. If you start with the Mini-ADHD Screener and later decide to move forward with a full evaluation, the $1,245 screener fee applies as a credit toward the cost of your comprehensive assessment. It's a genuinely lower-risk way to get a first read before committing to the full process.
-
Under federal law, if you're paying out of pocket or without insurance, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of what your evaluation will cost before you're billed. We provide this in writing once your evaluation is scheduled. If your final bill comes in $400 or more above that estimate, you have the right to dispute it. Questions about your estimate can be directed to Dr. Quincee Gideon, Clinical Director of Grey Matter Psychological Assessment, at 310-401-5072 or hello@gideonpsych.com.
Disclaimer for Good Faith Estimate for Cash Pay and Out of Network Patients
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and healthcare facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” (GFE) of expected charges. The GFE shows the costs of items and services that are reasonably expected for services provided by Woven. The estimate is based on information known at the time the estimate was created. It does not take into account any reimbursement that you may receive as a result of out-of-network benefits.
The Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if complications or special circumstances occur.
If you are billed for more than this Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill.
You may contact Dr. Quincee Gideon, Clinical Director of Grey Matter to let her know the billed charges are higher than the Good Faith Estimate. You can ask her to update the bill to match the Good Faith Estimate, ask to negotiate the bill or ask if there is financial assistance available.
