General Mental Health Evaluations
We offer general mental health evaluations that are aimed at diagnostic clarification and aid in treatment planning.
Someone who has been diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses may want to know which condition they are truly suffering from, since diagnosis guides treatment.
This evaluation also assists a client’s medication provider to determine which may be the right medication for the client, especially when the client’s symptoms are complicated.
ADHD Evaluations
An attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) evaluation is an assessment that helps our psychologists identify if an individual meets the criteria for ADHD symptoms such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, or inattention.
Our clinic provides services for children (ages 6 and older) and adults. The testing process begins with online paperwork, consent forms, and questionnaires.
Learning Disability Evaluations
A learning disability (LD) evaluation includes gaining insight into a client’s strengths and challenges at school or work to determine the cause of learning difficulties.
The evaluation includes the following components:
- screening,
- evaluation/formal psychological testing,
- diagnosis,
- and recommendations.
We provide testing for learning disability, but we do not test for specific learning disorders such as dyslexia and dysgraphia.
Autism Evaluations
We provide Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) evaluations that assess deficits in social communication, social interactions across settings, and restricted/repetitive patterns of behaviors, interests, and activities.
The ASD evaluation starts with online paperwork followed by an
in-person 90-minute initial intake appointment.
We offer this assessment to clients across age ranges starting at age 6 and older, and adults.
Health Psychology Evaluations
Pre-surgical Bariatric Evaluations
Bariatric assessments determine psychological and psychosocial readiness prior to surgery. This evaluation includes an initial interview to review key factors that may be a deterrent to successful outcomes in bariatric surgery followed by psychological testing.
We integrate information from the interview, psychological tests, and intake paperwork to determine the client’s readiness for bariatric surgery.
Occasionally, there are reasons to postpone surgery after the client follows recommendations.

This evaluation is completed in one to two visits and includes a comprehensive review of the client’s mental health problems, mental status examination, assessment of activities of daily functioning, and impairment in those areas due to the disability
Forensic Evaluations
