A Mission For Michael is a mental health treatment center with facilities in California, Washington, and Virginia where we provide evidence-based, holistic treatment for ADHD. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that impacts your daily functioning and academic performance. Typically, it is diagnosed in childhood, but the symptoms usually persist into adulthood.
Treatment may include medication and behavioral therapy to help you manage the symptoms, improve your focus, and gain greater self-control. AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center provides customized care for mental health disorders and dual diagnosis. Dual diagnosis is the medical term used when you have two mental health conditions at the same time. Survey data show 47.1% of adults with ADHD have also been diagnosed with anxiety.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. While the condition is commonly diagnosed during childhood, many people find the symptoms continue into adulthood. You may struggle with staying focused, managing tasks, and controlling impulses.
These symptoms can affect your performance at school, work, and personal relationships. There are three subtypes of ADHD, including inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, or combined. Diagnosis usually involves a comprehensive evaluation, including medical history, behavioral assessments, and reports from caregivers, teachers, or spouses. While there is no direct cure, treatment options can help manage symptoms and vastly improve your quality of life.
The main causes of ADHD are not fully understood, but research suggests a combination of genetic, environmental, and neurological factors contribute to the condition. Genetics plays a significant role since ADHD often runs in families. Brain structure and function differences, prenatal exposure to harmful substances, and premature birth are also believed to contribute to the development of the condition.
Additionally, early trauma, such as stress or abuse, can influence symptom severity but is not thought to be a causative factor. No single cause has been identified for ADHD, but the factors appear to collectively contribute to the likelihood of developing the condition. While precise causes have not been identified, evidence-based therapy does help reduce the symptoms.
The signs and symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) include persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. You may struggle to focus, follow through on tasks, or sit still. These symptoms can interfere with your daily life at school, work, or home. While the symptoms are often noticeable from an early age, many people with the condition find they persist into adulthood.
The symptoms vary based on the individual, age group, and the ADHD type. Adults with ADHD often display fewer symptoms of hyperactivity but struggle with restlessness, disorganization, and managing responsibilities. You may also experience challenges with emotional dysregulation that lead to mood swings, frustration, and difficulty managing stress.
Some common symptoms of ADHD include:
The average cost of an ADHD assessment and evaluation can range from $100 to $2,500, depending on your location and the extent of the testing. Most ADHD assessments include interviews with caregivers or spouses, behavioral observations, and standardized tests. This can help determine both the presence of ADHD and the severity of the symptoms.
Your cost can be significantly higher when neuropsychological assessments are included. AMFM offers a free assessment for ADHD, which helps determine the best level of care for your condition. This complimentary service helps remove financial barriers and ensures access to a thorough evaluation and appropriate recommendations without significant upfront out-of-pocket expenses. Call AMFM today to request your free assessment and learn about our unique treatment options to help address your ADHD symptoms.
While ADHD is often diagnosed in childhood, the condition frequently persists into adulthood. According to the CDC, there are an estimated 7 million children aged 3 to 17 who have been diagnosed with ADHD. Roughly six out of 10 experience moderate to severe symptoms, and three out of four have co-occurring conditions like learning disabilities, anxiety, and depression.
The rate of adult ADHD diagnoses is increasing, with one study demonstrating a 0.96% prevalence, more than doubling over the past ten years. Adults with ADHD often face higher rates of co-occurring mental health conditions, including anxiety and mood disorders, which can impair quality of life.
Yes, there are free and confidential ADHD testing, evaluations, and assessments available. You can find free assessments online, but computerized testing is not always accurate and relies on your interpretation of the results. When you call AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center, we can offer you a free assessment and professional recommendations for ADHD treatment options.
Our free assessment helps reduce the financial burden and can help determine the best level of care based on your needs. Our professionals are dedicated to mental health advocacy and work with you to access the necessary resources to manage your ADHD symptoms effectively.
Three types of ADHD have varying degrees of symptoms. You may recognize having one or two symptoms in each category, which is not unusual. Call AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center today to learn more about ADHD and the unique treatment options we use to reduce your symptoms and improve your quality of life.
Symptoms of ADHD combined include a mixture of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. If you have this form of ADHD, you will experience challenges in focusing, organizing tasks, and staying on track. You may also have symptoms of difficulty sitting still, restlessness, and impulsive decision-making. This combination interferes with daily functioning and makes it difficult to manage responsibilities.
ADHD impulsive-hyperactive type is marked primarily by hyperactive and impulsive behaviors without inattention. With this form of ADHD, you may find it difficult to sit still. You may fidget and talk excessively or act without thinking. Impulsiveness can lead to interrupting others, making hasty decisions, or engaging in risky activities that often disrupt your daily functioning and relationships.
Inattentive and distractible ADHD is characterized by having difficulty focusing, organizing, and completing tasks. You may struggle to pay attention, frequently lose items, and become easily distracted during the day. This can look like daydreaming or jumping from one task to another. Behaviors can lead to poor academic and work performance and having trouble managing responsibilities.

The average cost of ADHD treatment typically includes psychotherapy (talk therapy) and medication. Therapy sessions can cost from $100 to $200 per session. The cost of common ADHD medications is roughly $200 per month before insurance. These ADHD treatment costs vary based on multiple factors.

A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) for ADHD typically costs between $350 and $800 per day. The total cost depends on several factors, including the length of the program, which can range from several weeks to several months. Other factors include the experience of the therapist, the location, and whether additional services are required, such as medication management and psychiatric evaluations.
Insurance may help offset expenses, but you are likely still responsible for deductibles and copays. Your out-of-pocket expenses depend on your insurance coverage. Call AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center today. Our admission specialists will verify your insurance coverage, help estimate your out-of-pocket costs, and answer questions about your treatment options.
Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) for ADHD therapy typically cost from $250 to $500 per day.

Insurance may cover some expenses, but your coverage varies based on your insurance plan.
Your coverage dictates your out-of-pocket expenses. Call A Mission For Michael (AMFM) today so our admission specialists can verify your insurance coverage and estimate your costs.

Traditional outpatient therapy treatment fees for ADHD are typically between $100 and $300 per session. The overall cost depends on the length of your session, your therapist’s qualifications, the type of therapy provided, and the location. Insurance can cover some of the outpatient therapy rates for ADHD, but it depends on your insurance plan.
Private mental health treatment facility costs can be expensive, even with insurance. That’s why choosing your treatment facility is an important step in your recovery. AMFM Mental Health Treatment Center seeks to provide evidence-based holistic care while offering affordable options for ADHD therapy. Our admission specialists will verify your insurance coverage, estimate your out-of-pocket expenses, and help determine if you qualify for our payment plans and sliding scale fee options.
The average cost of counseling for ADHD is typically lower than the average therapy cost of $100 to $200 per session. Although they sound the same and are often used interchangeably, there are distinctions. The differences lie largely in the scope and depth of treatment and the licensed professional’s qualifications, which can affect cost.
Additional factors that affect the overall cost of counseling include the type of counseling, the provider’s location, and whether your counselor is in-network or out-of-network. Many customized plans for ADHD treatment include a combination of psychotherapy and counseling. Contact AMFM to inquire about affordable counseling for ADHD.

Yes, commercial health insurance usually covers treatment fees for ADHD, including medication, therapy, and diagnostic evaluations. Your mental health service expenses are dependent on your specific insurance plan. Some policies cover a portion of the cost, and others cover most. Depending on the insurance policy terms, you’ll still have expenses like copays, deductibles, and medication costs.
Working with AMFM admission specialists helps to verify your insurance coverage and determine your out-of-pocket expenses. Your plan may limit the number of therapy sessions covered or may require prior authorization for treatment or medications. We can help you gather the necessary documentation, discuss payment plans and sliding scale fees, and create a more budget-friendly ADHD treatment plan.
Yes, most private health insurance plans cover the cost of prescribed medications for ADHD treatments, including stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin and other non-stimulant medications. However, your coverage varies according to your plan. Some policies require copays, prior authorization, or step therapy before certain medications are approved. Initially, many policies will only cover low-cost, generic drugs.
The extent of your medication coverage also depends on the insurance provider’s formulary and if you work with an in-network pharmacy. The formulary is a list of medications your insurance provider covers. Some insurance providers limit coverage for newer or more expensive drugs, and some have a three-tiered formulary where you pay more for certain medications and less for others. Our admission specialists at AMFM can help you understand your plan’s prescription benefits so you can better manage your out-of-pocket expenses.
Most major health insurance providers in the U.S. cover the cost of ADHD treatment, including diagnostic evaluations, therapy sessions, and prescribed medications. Specific coverage will vary depending on your plan and provider. Some of the major insurance providers include Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, and Kaiser Permanente.
Two federal laws mandate that most insurance plans must offer coverage for the treatment of mental health conditions, including ADHD. However, there are exceptions to these rules. The admission specialists at AMFM will verify your coverage and determine the necessary steps before treatment can begin. We encourage you to call us today for more information.
With the support of health insurance, ADHD therapy costs can range from $20 to $75 per session.

When you don’t have insurance coverage, ADHD treatment can cost from $100 to $200 per therapy session, which depends on several factors, including whether your therapist is in-network, the type of therapy, and the length of the therapy sessions. Medication costs can also add another layer of expense to the treatment.
Medication cost varies greatly, while diagnostic ADHD testing rates can also add a one-time expense. Without health insurance coverage, expenses can add up quickly.

We can also discuss your eligibility for payment plans and sliding scale fees to improve mental health treatment affordability.
Therapies used to treat clinical ADHD often include a combination of psychotherapy (talk therapy), psychiatric medication, and specialized psychotherapy techniques that are tailored to meet your needs. Many programs utilize several treatment approaches to give you the best mental health support that promotes developing healthy coping strategies and reducing ADHD symptoms. These treatment approaches can include:
Untreated ADHD carries a steep cost for adults in the US. Generally, mental illness costs the U.S. $282 billion each year. The costs associated with ADHD to society each year were estimated at $122.8 billion for adults, with loss of productivity and cost of unemployment comprising the largest portion of this total.
Data also suggests that, left untreated, ADHD can likely lead to challenges with employment and lower lifetime earnings. The financial burden varies widely and is influenced by factors like your occupation, level of impairment, access to resources, and any co-occurring mental health conditions.
There are several steps to the admission process, some of which can be done simultaneously. How quickly you can be admitted depends on several factors, including arranging payment options or gathering the necessary insurance documentation for prior authorization.
