Clear answers. Personalized Treatment. All in one place.
Struggling with focus, memory, or changes in thinking or behavior? Neuropsychological testing helps identify what’s going on – and what to do next.
Patients receive a comprehensive cognitive evaluation designed to clarify challenges and guide targeted next steps, including treatment options within Acheron’s integrated neurocognitive care programs like Cognitive Remediation Therapy (CRT) and Ketamine-Assisted Cognitive Remediation Therapy (CRT-K).
For more complex referrals, including evaluations that involve non-neurocognitive psychiatric components such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or mood-related conditions, we offer an extended assessment. This includes administration and interpretation of the MMPI to ensure deeper diagnostic clarity.
Who is this for:
- Adults with ADHD, depression, or suspected autism
- Individuals facing cognitive issues at school, work, or in daily life
- Anyone experiencing brain fog, emotional shifts, or difficulty concentrating

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?
It begins with a 2.5-hour appointment (a virtual 45-minute intake + 1.5-hour virtual testing), followed by a 30-minute computerized test completed on your own time within one week. You’ll receive a detailed report and a 30-minute review session to discuss personalized recommendations.
How much does testing cost?
Testing is $3,000 out-of-network for standard evaluations. For more complex referrals involving psychiatric components like ASD, the fee is $3,250 to include additional measures like the MMPI. CareCredit is accepted. Superbills can be provided for potential insurance reimbursement.
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.
