Frequently Asked Questions...
How long does the process take?
The full assessment usually takes place over about 3 to 4 weeks, allowing time between sessions for questionnaires and reflection. However, if appointments can be scheduled close together, it can be completed in as little as 10 days.
How much does an assessment cost?
An ADHD assessment costs 280€ per 50-minute session, for a total cost of 1,120€. This fee includes all testing materials, analysis of your results and a full written report of legal standing.
Do I need a referral from a doctor?
No, you don’t need a referral. You can book directly with us through our website or over the phone. Many of our clients come to us first when they suspect they might be on the spectrum, and we’ll guide you step by step through the process without needing prior approval from a GP.
I think I might also need an ADHD assessment. Can we do both?
There is a lot of overlap between symptoms of Autism and ADHD, and people often want to be assessed for both conditions. If this is the case, then just one extra testing session is required for ADHD, as well as some supplementary questionnaires – all of which is charged at an additional 280€. This turns out much more affordable than being tested separately for each disorder.
Will this help with accommodations from work or university?
Yes. Our assessment reports are detailed, professional, and written to the highest clinical standards. They are frequently accepted by employers, HR departments, and universities to support requests for extra time, flexible working arrangements, or other accommodations. We can also provide additional letters if your workplace or school has specific requirements.
Can I do the assessment if I don't live in Paris?
Absolutely. Our assessments are available entirely online via a secure, confidential video platform. Many of our clients live in other parts of France or abroad. You’ll receive the same thorough assessment and final written report as in-person clients, all from the comfort of your home.
Is the report recognized internationally?
Our reports follow gold-standard diagnostic guidelines (DSM-5) and are written in clear, professional English. They are widely accepted by schools, universities and employers both in France and abroad.
Will my insurance cover this assessment?
We work with all the major international insurers, and many of them cover Autism assessment. If you're unsure as to whether your insurance plan covers this, our clinic manager Marianna would be happy to do a benefits check to find out – simply email your details to the address below.
I need the report in French. Is that possible?
That's no problem. We can provide a French translation of the report, verified by one of our bilingual psychologists for an additional 80€.
