Psychological Evaluations
Psychological evaluations/testing (including General Psychological Evaluations, ADD/ADHD Evaluations, Cognitive Decline Evaluations, Memory Issue Evaluations, Traumatic Brain Injury Evaluations) allow patients and their provider to better identify a diagnosis and treatment plan. Testing sessions involve you and your licensed psychologist. At your first intake appointment, which lasts approximately 45 - 50 minutes, the psychologist will conduct a clinical interview and obtain information to help in conducting a comprehensive evaluation. You will then participate in a number of measures and tests conducted by the psychologist lasting approximately 2 to 4 hours. After completion of the tests, the psychologist will analyze the results and produce a report, this takes at least 3 weeks. Once the report is completed, the psychologist will review the report with you at a follow-up session which will last 45-50 minutes.
