ESA (emotional support animal) Assessments

Emotional Support Animals are different than Service Animals, but they can still provide comfort and relief emotionally for many people. I provide a comprehensive assessment to fully understand your experience and how your animal provides that emotional support, which may result in an ESA letter being issued. If provided, the letter can be provided to landlords, housing authorities, and airlines to advocate for your ESA’s presence in your life in ways that the law allows.

The full cost of the ESA assessment is $800, which includes several sessions to gather information, review of information gathered in sessions (and collateral information from outside sources, if deemed necessary), and providing ESA letter if criteria is met.

Adult ADHD and Autism Assessments COMING SOON

I offer a comprehensive assessment focused on diagnosing ADHD and Autism in adults. This assessment takes place over 3, 1 hour sessions with a final 30 minute session to deliver results. I use the Cherry Adult ADHD-Autism Diagnostic Interview (Cherry AADI), a diagnostic assessment tool developed by Lindley Cherry for assessing ADHD and Autism in adults. This neurodiversity-affirming, strength-based assessment that incorporates an understanding of masking, gender and cultural differences, and utilizes diagnostic criteria from the DSM-5-TR and ICD-11.  What this means for you is a deeper look at understanding your experience in the world, which will allow us to identify any neurodivergence that may be present, allowing you to gain a better understanding of those life experiences.

The full cost of this assessment is $1,200. This includes the 3, 1-hour sessions, review of information and comparison with diagnostic criteria, and the 30 minute follow up session to deliver results.
