Psychological Assessment

  Psychological assessment is also available.  This includes intellectual, adaptive, academic, personality and diagnostic evaluations.  Psychological testing is often helpful to professionals in the fields of medicine, education, psychology, psychiatry, law and social work in that it may identify strength or deficit areas, clarify a diagnosis, and inform treatment goals for psychotherapy.  It may also prove helpful for parents or other advocates who are seeking a "second opinion" regarding a diagnosis or other classification.

     In my practice, I offer several specialized assessment services.  These include:

• Educational testing
• Neuropsychological evaluation
• Bariatric evaluation
• Pre-surgical screenings for lumbar fusion
• Pre-surgical evaluation for implantable pain therapies & devices
• Adoptive parent evaluation
• Cancellation of Removal
• Dementia evaluation / screening
• Intellectual disability determination
• Medically unexplained symptoms
• Forensic evaluation
• Fitness for duty evaluation
• ADHD testing

     ...among others.  My testing experience includes children, adolescents and adults.  Please contact me if you are interested in these specialized services

    Appointments for psychological assessment are usually made within 14 business days.  The testing typically takes place over several hours in one day, though on occasion more than one meeting may be indicated.  Written interpretive reports are usually available within 10-15 business days of the final date of assessment (i.e., the last day that the subject was seen).  A feedback session is scheduled at that time, during which the evaluation is reviewed in detail and significant findings explained.  Fees vary based on the referral question and subsequent number of psychological tests administered, scored, and interpreted.
