Frequently Asked Questions:
What is a psychological assessment and how are they useful?
A typical reason for obtaining a psychological assessment is to determine if you meet diagnostic criteria for a specific learning disorder, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, or other mental health condition. Formal assessments are sometimes required to access community services and/or specialized resources that require a formal diagnostic assessment by a psychologist or physician. Some people require a psychological assessment to support accommodations at work or school. Evidence-based recommendations for treatment and self-guided strategies for symptom management are also provided.
What do psychological assessments typically involve?
Assessments are uniquely tailored to meet the needs of each individual but most include:
- an interview to understand your current symptoms and difficulties, when they started, and how they are impacting your quality of life and day-to-day functioning
- one or more symptom-based questionnaires or specialized diagnostic tests
- if required, interviews with family members and review of school and medical records, with your written consent
Please feel free to Contact Us to schedule an initial consultation at no cost.
After the assessment is completed you can expect to receive:
- a detailed report with a summary of the information collected, diagnostic conclusions, and recommendations, including recommendations for academic or workplace accommodations, evidence-based treatments, and strategies for self-management
- a feedback session with the assessing psychologist by phone or video to discuss the report and answer any questions you may have
