What is Psychological Assessment?

Psychological assessment is a process of evaluating an individual’s cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and mental health functioning using standardized tools and clinical expertise. These assessments help in diagnosing psychological conditions, understanding personal strengths and challenges, and developing treatment plans tailored to each individual.

What to Expect During a Psychological Assessment

  • Initial Consultation – A licensed psychologist will discuss concerns, medical and psychological history, and goals for the assessment. Please note that all psychological testing will require a $200 deposit.

  • Testing Process – Depending on the type of evaluation, you may complete written tests, interviews, and structured activities. Selective Learning Disability (SLD) testing requires an out-of-pocket cost of $300 as this type of testing is not covered by insurance.

  • Feedback & Recommendations – After the assessment, we provide a comprehensive report outlining findings, diagnoses (if applicable), and treatment recommendations.
