Psychological Evaluation
Whether you have a targeted question, a general concern, or an open-ended curiosity, psychological testing provides clarity and direction. Testing is helpful for adults, adolescents, and children who need a clearer understanding of their strengths and weaknesses, patterns of behavior, and recommended services. Results are discussed in a collaborative meeting and detailed in a comprehensive report that includes diagnoses and specific recommendations. Reasons for testing may include:
Educational challenges or work performance difficulties
Accommodations needs for school and standardized testing such as SAT, ACT, LSAT, GRE and others
Social and interpersonal difficulties
Anxiety and phobias
School refusal and conduct issues
Differential diagnosis of ADHD, OCD, conduct disorders, anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, and other mental health needs
