i have a lot going on in terms of my mental health, but one thing that is really destroying my life right now seems to be executive dysfunction. i’m well into middle age now and never got assessed, but i’d like to be evaluated and treated if possible. i really don’t know where to start. i don’t have insurance as i’m unemployed (u.s.). what sort of professional should i see who can help me? any thoughts on what to expect along the way? any advice would be most appreciated!

they provide assessments and/or therapy fully online and the pricing is hugely discounted compared to many in-person mental health providers. for example, for my state, psychologytoday.com provider directory is about double the price on avg of those in Prosper.
if your state has health care coverage for low/no income people, the cost could potentially be reduced to almost zero out-of-pocket. as with everything, proceed cautiously, YMMV
edit: do not confuse with https://prosperhealth.ca/ (a Canadian rehab center)
Prosper was how I got my autism diagnosis!
Though, I was under the impression OP was wanting ADHD diagnosis and not autism diagnosis (question mark?)
honestly, i suspect add, but who knows? i sorta suspect my mental health issues are legion so anything is possible. glad they could help you out either way!
Best of luck to you! It felt very validating to be able to put a name to the struggles I’ve been experiencing my entire life.
thanks so much for the kind words!
so they exclusively provide autism services…
i wasn’t sure
thank you for the info and the link! i’ll look it over and talk with my partner about it.
