Neuropsychological and Psychoeducational Evaluations
Neuropsychological evaluations can help identify problems in attention, memory, language, or executive functioning in children, adolescents, and adults. Psychoeducational assessments focus on the processes underlying academic performance including intelligence, reading, writing, and math. These evaluations generally include an in-depth clinical interview, intelligence testing, and various other assessment tools.
We offer comprehensive assessments tailored to your needs or those of your child to identify strengths and weaknesses, and provide recommendations for home, school, or work to optimize functioning. In addition, individuals and families receive a detailed written report and in-depth feedback from the clinician reviewing results and recommendations. A comprehensive evaluation can also be a key component to treatment planning for those seeking therapy or other services as well.
Psychological Diagnostic Evaluations
A Psychological Diagnostic Evaluation is an individualized assessment aimed to help clarify or confirm any diagnostic concerns you may have for yourself or your child. These evaluations are particularly helpful when the presenting problem is complicated or previous treatment has been unsuccessful. We have considerable experience diagnosing mood disorders such as depressive and anxiety disorders, Autism Spectrum Disorder, eating-disordered behavior, feeding disorders, and other behavioral issues.
Forensic Evaluations
We offer evaluations to appeal a public safety position disqualification, fitness for duty evaluations, and firearm evaluations.
Pre-Adoption Evaluations
Prior to adopting a child, your agency may require you to undergo a psychological assessment. These evaluations assess an individual or couple’s readiness to adopt. We offer individualized evaluations to meet the specific requirements of each adoption agency in a caring and supportive environment. Evaluations generally include an in-depth clinical interview and the use of various assessment tools.
Bariatric Evaluations
Bariatric evaluations are often required for insurance approval prior to undergoing surgery. The focus of these evaluations is to identify strengths and resources that will help with the recovery process with the goal of improving health and quality of life. Preoperative psychological evaluations generally include a review of your medical history, a discussion with your current mental health provider, and the use of interview and assessment tools.
