Assessment services are highly individualized and therefore range in price. All assessments take place online via a HIPAA-secure platform.
Upstream Mental Health provides targeted psychoeducational and ADHD assessments to college students, graduate students, and young adults to help them identify challenges and strengths related to succeeding in academic and professional settings. Typical concerns addressed through these assessments include diagnostic clarity for ADHD, specific learning disorders, and psychiatric diagnoses (e.g., anxiety, depression, etc.).
These assessments are conducted via telehealth and cover a comprehensive range of cognitive and psychological abilities, as well as a thorough assessment of mental health and emotional functioning. Our practice focus on assessing clients from a culturally responsive, evidence-based, and holistic perspective.
Clients are provided with a comprehensive integrated report outlining assessment findings as well as tailored recommendations and treatment planning. Assessments may also be used to provide to your academic institution for accessing academic accommodations.

We are In-Network with BCBS, United Healthcare, and Optum products (Commercial plans only).
We also accept Private Pay and HSA/FSA payment.
We also offer Out-of-Network billing for all insurance companies.
Many insurance companies have “out-of-network” benefits that help pay for care you get from providers who don't take your plan!
Reimbursement:
Please contact your insurance company before your first session to ask about your benefits for therapy. If we are out-of-network, we can provide you with a receipt (“superbill”) that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
We recommend asking your insurance company the following:
What are my benefits for therapy/mental health services?
Do you offer reimbursement for out-of-network providers?
What is the reimbursement rate for an out-of-network Ph.D. therapist?
Would I have a deductible?
Is there a session limit per calendar year?
-
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
