Psychological Assessment
I have 20 years of experience performing adolescent and adult psychological, academic and neuropsychological testing, assessments and evaluations. The results of these can provide valuable and profound insights into the underlying causes of symptoms and help us shape the most effective treatment strategies. In addition, testing reports can assist with obtaining academic and testing accommodations.
If you have concerns about you or a loved one’s behavior, learning, attention or development, psychological testing, assessment and evaluation can provide valuable insight into the underlying causes of developmental and learning concerns so that you and/or your loved one can better understand their needs. Such evaluations are also useful in providing diagnostic clarification when a developmental disorder such as autism spectrum disorder or attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is suspected but uncertain.
What is a Psychological Assessment?
A psychological assessment is a process used to evaluate an individual's cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. It typically involves a combination of interviews, questionnaires, and standardized tests to gather information about the individual's strengths, weaknesses, and overall functioning. The assessment is typically conducted by a licensed psychologist or other qualified mental health professional. The purpose of a psychological assessment can vary, but it often includes identifying mental health disorders, evaluating cognitive functioning, assessing personality traits, and determining the best course of treatment. The results of the assessment can also be used to make important decisions, such as determining eligibility for disability benefits, or making recommendations for accommodations in educational or work settings. Overall, psychological assessments provide a thorough understanding of an individual's mental health and can aid in creating personalized treatment plans for clients.
