What is a Psychological Assessment?
Effective therapy begins with accurate diagnosis.
We believe that effective therapy and counseling begin with a strong assessment. A psychological assessment, also known as psychological testing, is a series of tests and analysis that provide a therapist with a baseline understanding of who their clients are; their behavior, strengths, challenges, and symptom profile. We provide diagnostic assessment to provide accurate diagnosis and effective, robust treatment plans.
