Psychologist giving a psychological evaluation to a teen

At CNS Behavioral Health, we provide comprehensive psychological evaluations to assess emotional, behavioral, and mental health functioning for individuals of all ages.

These evaluations are invaluable for diagnosing and understanding conditions such as depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, trauma-related disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), personality disorders, and a wide range of mental health concerns.

By identifying the root causes of emotional or behavioral difficulties, psychological evaluations empower patients with a deeper understanding of themselves and provide a foundation for effective intervention and growth.

Our Evaluation Process

Intake Session

The process begins with a detailed intake session to gather a thorough history, identify current concerns, and discuss goals for the evaluation. This session ensures that we understand your unique experiences and what you hope to gain from the process.

Testing

Comprehensive testing is tailored to each individual’s needs and typically includes a combination of clinical interviews, self-report questionnaires, and standardized tests. These assessments evaluate emotional well-being, behavioral patterns, personality dynamics, cognitive processing, and overall psychological functioning. Depending on the concerns, testing may also explore stress tolerance, interpersonal relationships, decision-making skills, and coping mechanisms. The goal is to create a holistic picture of how mental health factors impact daily life and identify areas for intervention.

Feedback Session

Once the evaluation is complete, we meet to review the results, provide a clear explanation of the findings, and discuss evidence-based recommendations for intervention, therapy, or additional support. Feedback sessions are designed to ensure you fully understand the results and feel empowered to move forward with actionable steps.

Advocacy and Support

For individuals facing challenges in school or the workplace, we can collaborate with families, school districts, educators, and employers to recommend accommodations or adjustments that promote well-being and performance.
