Psychological Evaluations
A psychological evaluation can help inform the next steps in your treatment process and healing journey. An evaluation consists of a structured interview and administration of psychological and/or neuropsychological testing instruments, such as IQ or achievement tests, social/emotional assessment measures, and/or personality assessment measures. Tests are selected based on referral questions and individual treatment needs, including, but not limited to, diagnosis/symptom clarification, presurgical requirements, best practice treatment recommendations, and cognitive or learning-related issues.
Our evaluations are performed by, or under supervision of, doctoral level psychologists. Our psychologists are trained in a variety of specialties in order to meet a wide range of needs for individuals ages two and up.
