Counselling or Assessment — Which Do I Need?
Counselling is generally the right place to start when you want help with something you’re experiencing: anxiety, trauma, grief, relationships, burnout, parenting, emotional regulation, ADHD-related difficulties, or another concern.
A psychological assessment is different. Its purpose is to answer a diagnostic or learning question, such as whether you or your child meets criteria for ADHD, autism, or a learning disorder.
For example, Solasta provides dedicated adult ADHD assessments, adult autism assessments, and assessments for children and adolescents.
If you’re not sure which you need, that’s completely fine. Our Find a Therapist tool can help direct you, or you can book a free consultation and we’ll help you determine the appropriate next step.
Fees, Insurance & Direct Billing
Our fees vary according to the clinician’s professional designation and the type of service being provided. We publish our fees openly so you can see the cost before booking.
Solasta direct bills a number of major insurers where the clinician and plan are eligible. Coverage varies by insurer, benefit plan, and professional designation, so we always recommend checking the details of your own plan.
