When emotional or behavioral challenges are impacting daily life, a psychological evaluation can help uncover what is really going on. These evaluations focus on understanding personality, emotions, and coping patterns. They are especially helpful if:
- Treatment progress has stalled.
- Multiple diagnoses have been suggested, but clarity is needed.
- A deeper understanding of psychological functioning would guide next steps.
Psychological evaluations may include clinical interviews, questionnaires, and other measures designed to give a clearer picture of your child’s or young adult’s mental health. The results can help guide therapy, school supports, or other interventions.
