The Child Assessment Clinic specializes in comprehensive diagnostic evaluations for children and adolescents aged 16 years of age and younger.

• Mood and anxiety disorders

​

However, we also conduct assessments for other problems in children:

​

The cost for a comprehensive diagnostic assessment is based on a sliding scale and may be discounted depending on client's income and need. 

​

• Standard Assessments - $900

• Comprehensive ASD Assessments - $1100 

• Abbreviated ASD Assessments (<5) - $300

• WISC-V (IQ Testing Only) - $300 ​

​

Please note that given the nature of the CSC being a training clinic where graduate students receive extensive supervision for each assessment, we are limited to conducting approximately 30 assessments per year.

Our waitlist is currently open and estimated for Summer 2026. 

​

For more information or to be placed on our assessment waitlist, please have the parent or legal guardian of the child call (540) 231-8276.
