Fees
Beginning the process of a comprehensive evaluation or therapy is a big decision. At The Neurodevelopmental Collective, we want families to feel supported from the very start. Our services are designed to give you clarity, confidence, and a plan that makes sense for your child and family.
​
Families often share that while the upfront cost feels significant, a thoughtful evaluation actually saves money and stress in the long run by:
-
Preventing years of trial-and-error with services that don’t fit
-
Giving schools a clear roadmap, reducing the need for repeated testing
-
Helping families focus resources on the supports that will truly help their child thrive
All comprehensive evaluations and IQ-only assessments are completed directly by Dr. Jessica Snowden Patel, Ph.D., M.J., who brings over 20 years of clinical experience and a neurodiversity-affirming approach.
Understanding Insurance & Reimbursement
At The Neurodevelopmental Collective, we are an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. We understand that navigating insurance can be overwhelming, and we’re here to help you understand your options.
​
Many families are able to receive partial reimbursement for services through their insurance provider. While we do not communicate with insurance companies directly at any stage, we will provide a detailed superbill and a comprehensive evaluation report, which are typically sufficient for reimbursement if your plan includes out-of-network benefits.
