Initial Assessment

A comprehensive diagnostic evaluation is completed upon the first meeting. This includes obtaining information related to your medical, psychological, psychiatric, biological, social, educational, work, and family history. It also includes the provision of psychological assessments that assist in differentiating diagnostic criteria as well as providing baseline scores before beginning treatment. This allows for the best determination of evidence-based practices for therapy. The initial assessment also incorporates education on treatment utility and research practices to provide clarity to you and those involved in your treatment.
