Psychological Evaluation

A psychological evaluation is the first step to receiving treatment from a psychologist or similar professional.

Typically, this is a comprehensive assessment of the individual’s mental and emotional health. It involves a series of standardized tests, interviews, and observations conducted by a trained mental health professional.

The purpose of the psychological evaluation is to determine the individual’s cognitive and emotional functioning, personality traits, behavior, and symptoms to better understand their overall mental health and any potential diagnoses.

The results of the psychological evaluation will be used to develop an accurate diagnosis, create an individualized treatment plan, and monitor progress over time.
