Neuropsychological & Educational Assessments
CPEAG conducts comprehensive neuropsychological and educational evaluations for children, adolescents, transition-aged youth, and young adults (i.e., around age 2 to 28 years) for a myriad of
neurocognitive (e.g., Intellectual Disability, executive dysfunction), learning and language-based learning conditions (e.g., Specific Learning Disorders [Dyslexia], Nonverbal Learning Disability),
neurodevelopmental (e.g., ADHD, ASD), as well as psychiatric concerns (e.g., anxiety, depression, other mood-related disorders, and psychosis). Both Dr. Coman and Nicole Coman are Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition (ADOS-2) trained and research reliable, providing gold-standard and focused diagnostic differential evaluations for individuals, across the lifespan, presenting with concerns for ASD. Dr. Coman is also trained and certified in the Structured Interview for Psychosis-Risk Syndromes (SIPS/SOPS) via Yale Medical School.
Our primary philosophy is to work from a strengths model, so we can identify how to optimize an individual's functioning and simultaneously support any vulnerabilities with comprehensive, yet clear, concise, and explicit recommendations. Our evaluations often lead to specific diagnoses when clinically indicated, assess for progress across time (see template here, e.g., academically, socio-emotionally), and offer a 3- to 4-year treatment and educational plan, which is informed by the extant scientific literature and the team's experience with evidence-based practices. A unique attribute to our recommendations is that Dr. Coman has expertise in delivering evidence-based treatment services. We also ensure our findings, clinical feedbacks, and written reports are clear and translatable to all involved parties. It is our highest priority to ensure caregivers and patients have a thorough understanding of the findings as well as the treatment and educational needs. Finally, both Dr. Coman and Nicole Coman have extensive experience in collaborating effectively with school teams, school districts, educational advocates, and educational attorneys. (Neuropsychological Assessment: $4800 - $5250; Early Childhood Evaluation Ages 3 and under: $2625; Focused Educational Evaluation: $3250; 30-minute Adolescent Feedback Session: $195)
Academic Progress Monitoring
Nicole Coman conducts focused academic progress evaluations for students who have previously identified specific learning disabilities and are enrolled into interventions either privately and/or within their special education programming. These evaluations are engineered to juxtapose previous data (see template here) with current focused evaluation data to assess for effective progress. ($2850 - $3000)
School Observations & Consultation
CPEAG conducts school observations and school-based consultations for families as well to assist with educational programming, Individualized Education Program (IEP) development, classroom and school placement determination, and advocating for their child within the school setting.

4-hour observation ($3,500)
Observation of two programs, with integrated report ($4,750)

Consultations & Evaluations for Professional Sports
Dr. Coman offers evaluations for professional sports organizations to assist individuals in determining eligibility for workplace accommodations under the guidance of the American with Disabilities Act (ADA). Please inquire with the practice for fee structure.
Therapy
The clinical services provided by Dr. Coman also comprises evidenced-based therapeutic services for the age range as noted above and their families utilizing behavioral (e.g., Parent Management Training, Parent Child Interaction Therapy [PCIT]) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approaches. Dr. Coman sees patients presenting with internalizing (e.g., anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders) and externalizing-related (e.g., disruptive behaviors, noncompliance) vulnerabilities and an array of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric diagnoses. He enjoys working with patients and their families by providing psychoeducation on the condition and meeting various therapeutic goals. At this time, Dr. Coman's waitlist is full.
Financial Consideration
The practice does not accept insurance, but we will provide you with a receipt following the testing (with procedures and billing codes). Some families attempt to seek reimbursement on their own from their insurance company following the testing. Coverage differs across insurances and specific plans. Dr. Coman would be considered as an out-of-network provider. Payment would be due on the appointment day and we accept cash or check only.
