Psychological assessment (diagnosis) in English

Looking for a standalone psychological assessment?

Bzonder offers (online) diagnostic assessments without waitlists in both Dutch and English**. 

In 5 weeks* you will have your official diagnosis and psychological assessment report. Need it sooner? Register for a diagnostic express assessment.

*After the first consultation of the diagnostic assessment. The first consultation is the intake consultation that follows your pre-intake. If there are any public holidays or vacations during this period, the lead time may be slightly longer.

** Please note that you can currently only apply for an online trajectory. At the moment we have a short waiting list, which we will continue planning starting from the 25th of May 2024. We make our planning based on the type of request, the type of application, the date of signing the
agreement and the date of payment (updated: 17-04-2024). Do you want to start
sooner? We have the possibility of an express assessment.  

What is a psychological evaluation?

An official diagnosis is established through a diagnostic assessment or psychological evaluation. This consists of a so-called ‘DSM classification’ of the symptoms you experience. For example, whether your symptoms can be explained by an autism diagnosis or whether they can be explained by an ADHD diagnosis or something else. In addition, you will also receive a descriptive report that indicates what the issues are and why.

If you are a parent or loved one of someone with a diagnosis, you can contact us if you want to receive tools and tips for this. 

Why get assessed by Bzonder?

We are a team of psychological experts with a specialisation in ADHD, ADD, autism, and stress symptoms. We pay a lot of attention to who you are as a person. 

It goes without saying that we are bound by standards and DSM classifications, which are the basis of diagnostics. For us, however, diagnostics is not just about ‘checking boxes’, but also looking at who you are as a unique person and how your symptoms relate to each other. After all, you don’t just want to be given a ‘label’, but specifically want to know what it means for you. For example, we see many women who were only diagnosed with ADHD later in life, because they taught themselves many coping and compensation strategies that have not been recognized by previous practitioners. This often has major consequences for the person’s course of life and daily functioning.

In addition, we conduct extensive assessments into various parts of your personality and symptoms. We don’t just look at whether or not you have one specific diagnosis, but assess you as a whole. This gives you a more complete picture of where your symptoms come from. You will also receive a complete psychological report from us at the end of the evaluation. If desired, you can also combine a diagnostics assessment with career advice.

Complete privacy

Since we provide private care, we can guarantee complete privacy: the result of the psychological assessment, and therefore the diagnosis, among other things, is for your information only. A diagnosis is not registered or disclosed anywhere else. An official diagnosis from Bzonder has the same validity as an assessment elsewhere.

Finally, we do not have a waitlist. If you are flexible in your appointment options, you can start immediately* with us.

 

How much does a psychological assessment cost?

The cost of a complex basic assessment is 2326,95 euros. A complex basic assessment is based on the presumption of a well-defined specific diagnosis. Only Bzonder can determine whether this is the right psychological assessment for you.

The cost of a complex assessment plus is 2769,95 euros. A complex plus assessment is based on broad diagnostics. This is the general diagnostic procedure. 

If you choose a direct registration including pre-intake you receive a discount, meaning a complex assessment plus is 2827,95 euros (instead of 2769,95 euro + the cost of a separate pre-intake).

For an express assessment there is a surcharge of +100%. For in-office sessions there is an additional surcharge.

A diagnostic evaluation at Bzonder is not covered by (Dutch) health insurance. Our clients are responsible for the payment of their assessment, or their employer contributes (partly) to the cost of our services.

Freelancer in The Netherlands? Then you may be able to get a tax benefit through a deduction. This may cut the assessment cost in half.

It is always at the discretion of Bzonder which assessment is appropriate for your situation.

What does a psychological assessment look like?

Depending on your questions and issues, you will either go through a complex or an express assessment. Before your first appointment, you will receive a questionnaire that needs to be completed beforehand. The first appointment is an intake (90mins) where we ask questions about you, your circumstances, your past and your outlook on life. The second and sometimes third appointment consists of psychodiagnostic questionnaires (120-240 minutes). We often invite someone from your social network who knows you well, and also has insight into your behaviour as a child. Furthermore, you will have a consultation with a second intake professional.

When all information has been processed, you receive a complete psychological report and will have a final consultation with the intake professional (45min). At least one consultation takes place through video call. If you wish, the whole evaluation can also take place online. Only in the case of a neuropsychological assessment, one face-to-face appointment is mandatory.
