psychological Evaluation
Insight Into Mental and Behavioral Health
A psychological evaluation is a comprehensive assessment used to understand a person’s emotional, behavioral, and mental functioning. These evaluations help identify the psychological causes of challenges a person may be facing in daily life—whether they involve mood, anxiety, behavior, relationships, or personality.
This evaluation can be essential for diagnosing mental health conditions and guiding effective treatment.
A psychological evaluation gathers detailed information through interviews, questionnaires, and standardized testing to provide a holistic picture of a person’s psychological health and functioning in various areas of life.
