FAQs:
Q: Why would I (or my child) need a full psychological evaluation?
A: Psychologists use a clinical interview to arrive at appropriate diagnoses, which informs treatment. Sometimes, however, the clinical interview does not provide enough information to differentiate between certain diagnoses or conditions. Different diagnoses can often have overlapping symptom presentations. For example, ADHD and anxiety can look similar in children. If a proper diagnosis is not determined, treatments for both of these conditions can look very different, thus making it very difficult to target the underlying cause(s) and manage symptoms. For adults, mood disorders and personality disorders can also mimic each other as well as co-occur. Psychological evaluations or testing can pull together multiple points of data to arrive at a full picture of an individual’s cognitive, achievement, emotional, and personality functioning. Not only does this result in more accurate diagnosis, but it also informs more targeted treatment interventions, and ultimately, improved overall results.
