Assessment Options
Truncated ADHD Evaluation ($1,500)
Focused on key areas such as attention, working memory, and executive functioning. Typically shorter than a full neuropsychological assessment, it emphasizes the domains most relevant for ADHD diagnosis.
Concussion Evaluation ($2,500)
Focused on domains commonly affected by concussion, such as attention, memory, processing speed, executive functioning, and mood. This helps guide recovery planning with treatment recommendations tailored to the individual’s unique symptom profile.
Standard Comprehensive Evaluation ($3,000)
A thorough evaluation of an individual’s cognitive functioning across multiple domains, often used for diagnosing cognitive disorders or following brain injury. Includes tests of attention, working memory, processing speed, executive functioning, language, visuospatial abilities, learning, and memory.
Academic Accommodations Evaluation ($4,000)
Designed to assess cognitive abilities in relation to academic functioning. Focuses on areas of academic skills, in addition to attention, working memory, processing speed, executive functioning, and memory that may impact academic performance. Aims to help determine if accommodations are needed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is neuropsychological testing?
A comprehensive assessment of how your brain functions, evaluating memory, attention, executive functioning, and emotional well-being to guide next steps in care.
What does the testing process look like?
- A 45-minute clinical interview
- Several hours of virtual neuropsychological testing
- A detailed, individualized report outlining cognitive strengths, limitations, and treatment recommendations
- A 30-minute follow-up session to review results, offer strategic recommendations, and explore next steps to enhance cognitive functioning.
- Testing may support academic or workplace accommodations, informs treatment recommendations (including CRT and CRT-K), and empowers patients to better understand their cognitive profile
What makes Acheron's testing unique?
Our integrated model means you receive both testing and personalized treatment recommendations under one roof, eliminating long waits, confusion about next steps, and gaps in care.
Who is a good candidate?
Anyone noticing changes in thinking, memory, attention, or behavior – especially young adults with ADHD, anxiety, depression, or suspected neurodivergence. It’s also valuable for those navigating work or academic challenges.
What is "brain fog," and can testing help?
Brain fog often refers to mental fatigue, trouble concentrating, or forgetfulness. Testing helps identify underlying causes of brain fog – whether cognitive, psychiatric, or lifestyle-related – and offers actionable next steps.
Can this support disability or accommodations?
Yes. Reports can assist with school or work accommodations, disability documentation, and daily strategy suggestions.
Do I need to prepare for the test?
No preparation is needed. We simply ask that you avoid stimulant or sedating medications (like Adderall or Xanax) the morning of testing unless you want results to reflect medicated functioning.
Will I get a diagnosis?
Testing offers diagnostic clarity and actionable insights into your cognitive profile, helping inform treatment – not simply to assign a label.
