PSYCHOLOGY - TESTING & ASSESSMENT

Psychological testing can help you better understand how you think, learn, feel, and respond to everyday situations. Our psychologists and psychological associates use interviews, testing, and other tools to understand your concerns, recognize your strengths, and identify areas where you may need additional support.

Testing can be helpful for children, adolescents, and adults who have questions or concerns about attention, learning, development, behavior, emotions, personality, or cognitive functioning. It can also help when challenges at school, work, or in relationships are affecting daily life.

An evaluation may include questionnaires, standardized tests, interviews, observations, and a review of relevant medical or educational information. When appropriate, we may also gather information from parents, teachers, family members, or other professionals with your permission.

Psychological testing is not a pass-or-fail experience. Each evaluation is tailored to the individual and is designed to provide a clearer understanding of what you are experiencing, while helping identify helpful recommendations and next steps.

Our psychologists (PhD and PsyD) and psychological associates take the time to understand each person’s unique needs and concerns, providing thoughtful evaluations in a supportive and comfortable environment.
