Welcome College Students

We offer accessible and affordable psychiatric evaluations for students attending colleges in California, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Virginia and Washington D.C.

How it Works

Northstar Psychology works extensively with college students, campus counseling and student disability centers to provide easily accessible (fully remote) and financially feasible (in-network) evaluations for students attending college in California, Massachusetts and New York.

Our fully remote evaluations are appropriate for diagnostic clarity, medication recommendations and academic accommodations at your school. 

We are in-network with Aetna (for UC Berkeley) and Anthem BCBS (all other University of California students) and Massachusetts BCBS. The average co-pay for an evaluation is approximately $100.

In-network with your insurance

Aetna | UC SHIP | Massachusetts BCBS

We are in-network with Aetna and UC SHIP and Massachusetts BCBS. The average co-pay for an evaluation is approximately $100. We offer sliding scale options as well.

The Process

Our evaluation process begins with 

  • Online intake forms and psychiatric assessments on your own time

  • Remote Cognitive Testing Session (1 hr)

  • Remote Clinical Interview (1 hr)

After we have completed the interview and received all testing results, we take approximately 15-days to complete the evaluation report. You will then be scheduled for a Feedback Session where we go over the results, diagnosis and recommendations.

Accommodations on standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, LSAT and MCAT require in-person testing at our office in Berkeley, CA. To learn more about receiving accommodations on standardized tests, contact us at info@northstar-psychology.com, we will follow up with you within 24 hours.
