ADHD Assessment in New Brunswick, Online and Clinician-Led
Many New Brunswickers are still waiting on the provincial list just to get a family doctor, let alone a psychiatrist referral. Finding Focus skips both queues: book a clinician-led video ADHD assessment directly, from $399, with your outcome often shared within days.
New Brunswick's route to a publicly funded ADHD assessment has a prerequisite that trips up many residents: a primary care provider. Large numbers of New Brunswickers have spent extended periods on the provincial patient registry waiting to be matched with a family doctor or nurse practitioner, and without that first door, a psychiatrist referral is hard to obtain. Even once referred, non-urgent adult assessments commonly take many months, whether you are in Moncton, Saint John, Fredericton, or the rural north.
New Brunswick Medicare covers insured physician services, so the public assessment pathway has no direct cost once you are in it. It does not cover private psychologist assessments, which commonly cost between $2,000 and $4,000 or more, and it does not cover private virtual clinics like Finding Focus. Many employer benefit plans and health spending accounts will reimburse part of a private assessment; our answer on ADHD assessment costs in New Brunswick explains what to look for in your plan.
The online route asks for none of the prerequisites. You book a Finding Focus assessment directly, without a referral or a family doctor, and complete a DSM-5-TR based, CADDRA-aligned video assessment with a licensed Canadian clinician. Adult assessments start at $399, a one-time fee that includes your treatment plan; see pricing and our guide to how ADHD testing and diagnosis works. Adults 18 and over are served in eligible Canadian provinces, including New Brunswick; the current list is on our locations page.

How it works
Book directly online
Select an appointment, often available within days, and complete a short intake questionnaire. You do not need a family doctor, a referral, or a spot on any registry.
Attend a structured video assessment
A licensed Canadian clinician walks you through a DSM-5-TR based, CADDRA-aligned assessment over secure video, covering your history, current challenges, and how symptoms affect daily life.
Hear your result, often within days
Most people receive their outcome within hours to days of the appointment. If ADHD is not the best explanation, your clinician will tell you and outline other avenues worth exploring.

Frequently asked questions
The public Medicare route is free at the point of care but requires a referral, and waits commonly run many months. Private psychologist assessments in the region commonly cost between $2,000 and $4,000 or more.

No. New Brunswick Medicare covers insured physician services in the public system, not private psychologist assessments or private virtual clinics. Workplace benefits or a health spending account may reimburse part of the fee, depending on how your plan handles nurse practitioner services.
Neither is needed with Finding Focus. You book directly online, which is a practical difference in a province where many residents are still waiting to be matched with a primary care provider.
Yes. Nurse practitioners are licensed to assess, diagnose, and treat ADHD, and may prescribe medication where clinically appropriate. Your written diagnostic report can be shared with a future family doctor and used for workplace or academic accommodation requests, though each organization defines its own documentation requirements.
Not currently. Finding Focus assesses adults 18 and over in New Brunswick; youth assessments for ages 12 to 17 are offered in Ontario only at this time. This page is educational, and a licensed clinician remains the best source of advice for your own circumstances.
