Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a Psychological Evaluation?
A psychological evaluation is a mental health assessment performed by a doctor, psychologist, or psychiatrist that checks to see if you are experiencing a mental health problem. The doctor determines what information and battery of testing to use based on the specific questions being asked.
Why is Psychological Testing Beneficial?
Psychological assessments involving the use of comprehensive psychometric measures are the most under-utilized elements in mental health. They can act as both a lens and a lever assisting in a unique perspective on relevant issues while also highlighting where and how therapy needs to be focused. Testing brings insight, clarity of focus, and opportunity for patients and doctors to engage in an open and powerful way. Testing can help improve the quality of care.
