California Women’s Therapy is now offering Adult ADHD Evaluations
Conducted by Dr. Marina Marcus, Postdoctoral Psychological Associate
“I’m Dr. Marina Marcus, and I conduct ADHD evaluations for adults through California Women’s Therapy. There are a lot of resources out there for learning about ADHD, but many of these can be confusing and aren’t backed up by research. I’d like to be a partner in helping you understand whether you do have ADHD and, if so, how you can better cope, by using strategies and tools that have a solid evidence-base behind them.”
If you choose to conduct your ADHD evaluation through CWT, you’ll be working with a trained postdoctoral psychological associate, who can get to know you, your history and experiences, and give you recommendations that are tailored to your specific needs.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d have questions or would like to schedule a free initial consultation.
You can reach Dr. Marina Marcus directly via email at [email protected].
Our Assessment Approach
Our adult ADHD evaluations include the following:
- a comprehensive diagnostic interview
- administration of the DIVA-5 (a structured Diagnostic Interview for Adult ADHD that is based on the criteria for ADHD in DSM-5)
- completion of self-report and other-report forms of symptoms of ADHD both in childhood and in adulthood
- other assessment measures as deemed appropriate given your specific symptoms and life circumstances
Your Participation
Assessment sessions are held virtually and scheduled based on mutual availability between you and Dr. Marina. Typically, 3 to 5 sessions are needed and are generally scheduled in 1 – 2 hour blocks. However, these do not need to take place in the same week and can be scheduled according to your availability.
Pricing
An adult ADHD evaluation takes between 8 and 12 hours in all to complete. This includes test scoring, interpretation, and report writing – which is done without the client present. This also includes a feedback session, during which your results will be shared with you and recommendations will be provided. You will also receive a copy of the final report.
Assessment services are billed at a rate of $150 per hour.
Superbills are available upon request for clients with PPO insurance plans who are eligible for reimbursement for psychological assessment services from their insurance company.
