Psychiatric Evaluation
During your initial appointment, we take the time to understand your mental, emotional, and physical health so we can create a treatment plan that truly fits you.
What to Expect
Comprehensive Clinical Evaluation
We’ll review:
- Your medical, psychiatric, and family history
- Current symptoms and concerns
- Daily functioning and life stressors
We also consider your cultural background and lived experiences, ensuring your care is accurate, respectful, and personalized.
A diagnosis is never rushed. For some, it brings clarity and relief; for others, it can feel overwhelming. We move at your pace and make sure you feel informed and supported every step of the way.
Diagnosis is a process, not a one-time label. As new information emerges, we refine your diagnosis to ensure it remains accurate and meaningful.
Evidence-Based Tools & Testing
To better understand your symptoms and guide treatment, we may use:
- Screening tools and diagnostic assessments
(including ADHD evaluations for adults and children) - Lab testing to rule out medical contributors
- Genetic testing (pharmacogenomics)
- Collaboration with your primary care provider when needed
