How Psychological Testing Works

​

Psychological tests do not diagnose you. Tests are often an important part of an evaluation, but test results are interpreted in the context of a lot of other information I will gather during our appointments. Psychological evaluations require multiple visits and take some time. I gather as much information as I can through meetings with you (and parents, if you're a minor!), integrating collateral information such as medical records and academic records, administering and interpreting psychological tests, and putting it all together with an emphasis on addressing the questions with which you entered into your evaluation. I will go over all results with you at the end of our time together in which you will be able to ask questions, get recommendations, and make a plan for moving forward.
