Affordable ADHD Testing in Orange County
In Newport Beach CA
If you’ve been looking into ADHD testing in Orange County, you’ve probably seen quotes ranging from $2,500 to $4,000+ for full neuropsychological evaluations — often with long wait times and unclear next steps.
For many adults, this level of testing is unnecessary when the goal is to gain diagnostic clarity and begin treatment.
At Mind Over Matter Mental Health Group, we offer a more accessible, clinically guided ADHD evaluation process that combines objective testing with expert psychiatric assessment.

QbTest is an FDA-cleared, computer-based ADHD test that objectively measures:
Attention
