About Me

Hi, I'm Jessica, but you can call me Jess.

Services & Rates

Servicing California residents only

Individual Therapy | 55 minute session - $200

ADHD & Autism Assessments (info below) | $1,000

To make therapy more accessible, I do offer a sliding scale. The sliding scale rate will depend on your financial situation/status. I am very open to discussing this further. Please feel free to reach out for more details.

I accept insurance (Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, Anthem Blue Cross) as well as the EAP plan Lyra. I am also an out-of-network provider. As an out-of-network provider, it is up to you to contact your insurance to see if they will cover your sessions. I can then give you a superbill every month that you can submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement. Each policy is unique and it is important to discuss the specifications of your plan with your insurance to confirm what you may qualify for.

Cancellation Policy

I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. For example, if your session was on a 10am on Monday, even if I don't work weekends, you must cancel by 10am the day before (Sunday) to avoid a $100 late cancellation fee. A no-show will also result in a $100 no-show fee.

Autism & ADHD Assessments

Why get evaluated?

Maybe you want a first assessment, a second opinion, or a fresh look after a few years. Either way, an evaluation gives you a clear answer. A lot of people have spent years assuming they’re lazy or just not trying hard enough (that was me!), when ADHD was behind it all along. A diagnosis can also get you accommodations at school or work, and it gives you solid information for deciding on treatment, including whether medication is worth considering.

What the evaluation involves...

I use a mix of standardized and neuroaffirming assessments. The evaluation confirms or rules out ADHD, and it also shows how your attention, thinking, and emotions work in daily life, so you leave knowing more than just a yes or no.

How it works

  • Intake. Reach out to get started. A deposit secures your spot (see below). You’ll fill out intake forms and upload any records you have, such as past evaluations or an IEP from when you were younger. You'll also fill out A LOT of self-assessments and rating scales, but don't worry, you can take your time and I can further explain if you'd like! Then we’ll meet by video to talk through your concerns.

  • Assessment day. Testing happens in two, 2-hour sessions, with breaks. Sometimes it may be one giant 4-hour session with breaks. You’ll need a quiet space with no distractions and good Wi-Fi.

  • Scoring and report writing. After testing, I score and analyze everything and draft the initial report.

  • Feedback session. We’ll meet 2-3 weeks after assessment day to go over the results, my recommendations, and your questions.

  • Final report. You’ll get the finished report, with recommendations and referrals, within a month of the feedback session.

Cost and payment

The full evaluation is $1,000. It is nearly impossible for insurance to accept and bill for assessments with master's-level therapists, so for this service I do not take insurance. However, if you have a PPO, I can give you a superbill to submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement. It’s worth calling your insurer ahead of time to ask what they cover. Please note, a superbill will require a diagnosis to be added onto your chart.

A $250 deposit holds your spot and counts toward the total. You can pay the remainder at once or in two installments of $375: the first due before assessment day, the second by the feedback session. I am also open to other types of payment plans.

The average cost of ADHD/Autism Assessments of this type from master's-level therapists such as I (LMFT, LCSW, LPCC, etc) are $1,200-$2,000+. I am committed to expanding access to care for those who might not otherwise be able to afford it, while ensuring my work remains financially sustainable.

If you have questions or want to schedule, get in touch. I’m happy to talk it through.

But wait....you're not a doctor?!?!?!?!

Yes, that's right! I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist California. :) I have also completed specialized training in ADHD and autism evaluation from Neuropebble (Jamie Roberts, LMFT). The publishers of each assessment set the education and training requirements for administering and interpreting it, and my credentials meet those requirements for every tool I use in an ADHD and autism evaluation.

Please check out this site for more information on why an LMFT or another licensed, masters-level clinician can diagnose ADHD and autism. If you have any other questions, please let me know:
