What to expect from a Vextara assessment

Start to finish: the intake, the attention test, the clinician review, and what you actually walk away with.

The Vextara team· July 9, 2026

No clinic visit, no waitlist, no guessing what happens next. Here’s the whole thing, step by step.

1. A DSM-5 intake (~8 minutes)

A structured questionnaire across the symptom domains clinicians use — plus onset, settings, and real-world impact. It’s the same framework a diagnosis is built on, so nothing important gets skipped.

2. The attention test (~5 minutes)

A short, standardized task you do from home on your device. It records how your attention and impulse control actually perform — objective data a self-rating can’t give.

3. A licensed clinician reviews it

A real clinician reads your results against age norms alongside your intake — usually within 24 hours. Software measures; a human decides.

4. Your answer and next steps

After a short online session with the clinician, you get a diagnosis and a care plan — within about 72 hours, the same week. If treatment becomes part of the plan, that’s handled with the clinician, at your pace, with no pressure to medicate.

Your results are saved and repeatable, so if you want to see whether something is working later, the same test gives you a like-for-like comparison over time.

That’s it — objective evidence, a clinician behind it, in days rather than months, for a one-time $99.
