Psychological Evaluation · $1,450
Private Substance Use Evaluation
A private clinical answer about your drinking or medication use, from a doctoral-level psychologist over secure video. Two appointments, one flat fee of $1,450, and a written evaluation with recommendations.
The short answer
The Private Substance Use Evaluation is a two-appointment voluntary assessment for adults, conducted over secure video by a licensed doctoral-level psychologist. It costs $1,450, paid once at the first appointment, and ends with a written evaluation and recommendations. It is never for courts, boards or employers.
Who it is for
Someone raised it, or you did. You want an honest answer before anyone else is involved.
A spouse or partner said something
You want to know whether the concern is fair, from someone with no stake in it.
You have started to wonder yourself
The amount, the timing or the reasons have changed and you have noticed.
Your position makes it complicated
A license, a board seat or a public role means you cannot ask casually.
You want facts, not a program
A clinical assessment and a plain recommendation, with no enrollment attached.
