Psychological & Diagnostic Assessment Services: Unveiling the Mystery of the Mind
Every individual, at some point in their life, may face challenges with their mental health, behavior, or learning. Understanding these challenges is paramount to addressing them effectively. At our clinic, we offer Psychological & Diagnostic Assessment Services to provide insights into these difficulties, helping to pinpoint their root causes.
What is a Psychological Evaluation?
A psychological evaluation is an intricate process of assessment and screening, carried out by our licensed psychologists. Think of it as detective work: gathering clues to understand the underlying challenges. The more comprehensive the assessment, the clearer the picture, and the more tailored the recommended solutions.
Why Opt for an Evaluation?
If you or someone you care about is experiencing unexplained changes in mood, behavior, or learning abilities, a psychological evaluation can provide clarity. This diagnostic tool is essential for diagnosing a myriad of mental health conditions, ranging from anxiety and ADHD to Alzheimer’s disease and bipolar disorder. Moreover, it aids in:
Gauging the intensity of depression or anxiety symptoms.
Identifying learning disabilities.
Determining academic strengths and areas of improvement.
Recognising root causes of emotional challenges.
Understanding personality traits and how they interact with the environment.
Types of Psychological Evaluations We Offer:
- Assessment of Intellectual Functioning (IQ): Measure cognitive abilities and potential.
- Behavioral Assessment: Pinpoint causes of specific behaviours or emotions.
- Clinical Interview: Accurate diagnosis of various mental disorders.
- Personality Assessment: Understand the facets of your personality and its origins.
- Our comprehensive services also extend to assessments for academic aptitude, career counseling, management skill development, and career planning.
The Process:
Every psychological evaluation is tailored to the individual’s unique needs. Assessments can range from written questionnaires and oral interviews to computerized tests. The duration varies; while some tests might be completed in a few hours, others might span multiple sessions.
Where and How to Get Evaluated?
We understand the investment of time and resources that come with psychological evaluations. It’s crucial to ensure the process is effective and yields accurate results. We recommend an initial consultation with one of our psychologists to determine the most suitable tests, costs, and timelines.
