DETAILS & PROCESS


PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW

  • Do you have difficulty concentrating? 

  • Would you like to understand more about how you think about and relate to others?

  • Have you found that you or your child struggles in school or at work? 

  • Is learning a struggle for you, or have you noticed recent changes in your school or work performance? 

  • Have your previous mental health care providers had difficulty diagnosing you, or changed your diagnosis?

You or your child might benefit from a psychological assessment

A psychological assessment is a tool used to make a proper diagnosis and formulate the appropriate treatment plan.  Each one is given based on issues currently being experienced and evaluates multiple aspects of an individual’s functioning.  A typical psychological assessment contains a variety of tests, including intelligence (or cognitive), achievement, and personality.

What does the process Entail?

THE PROCESS HAS THREE STAGES:

Initial Session: The first step is a meeting which can take place in person or on a video call. In this meeting I will review your concerns and discuss your background and history.  

Testing: After the initial session, testing is scheduled. Depending on the amount of testing, the process can take 4 to 6 hours and may occur over two appointments. In some cases, such as neurocognitive and achievement assessments, extended hours of testing may be necessary.

Results: After testing is completed and scored, I will prepare a report containing the test results, a conceptualization of the problem, and a list of recommendations. Once the report is ready, we will meet for a feedback session to review the results. The final report is normally presented two weeks after the last testing session.

I have an extensive inventory of over 60 psychological test batteries which enables me to customize an evaluation to suit your needs. Contact my office today for more information.
