Psychogical & Neurocognitive Testing

My evaluation services are multi-method in nature, and incorporate a comprehensive clinical interview; review of collateral information from medical providers / family members (where possible); and full battery of neurocognitive, psychological, personality, performance-based, and other psycho-diagnostic instruments - all of which are used to provide important information about differential diagnosis and treatment planning. My consultation services may be helpful to individual patients / clients in number of different ways, including:

To Provide Diagnostic Clarity

 For example, to formally assess for discrete conditions such as: 
  • Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and other cognitive / learning issues
  • Executive Functioning, Memory, and/or Attention / Processing impairments 
  • Depressive Disorders
  • Bipolar-Spectrum Disorders
  • Alcohol Use Disorders
  • Substance Use Disorders 
  • Anxiety Disorders (e.g., Generalized Anxiety, Panic Disorder, Specific Phobias, etc.) 
  • Trauma and Stressor-Related Disorders (e.g., Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Acute Stress Disorder, etc.) 
  • Dissociative Disorders
  • Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) and Related Disorders
  • Personality Disorders (e.g., Borderline, Antisocial Personality, etc.)
  • Psychotic (e.g., Schizophrenia-spectrum) Disorders 
  • Somatic Symptom and Related Disorders
  • Eating Disorders
​

To Inform / Enhance Treatment Planning

 For example, to:
  • Facilitate the development of an evidence-based / empirically supported approach to treatment that is tailored to the person and their unique needs  
  • Provide differential diagnosis and/or diagnostic clarification in situations where symptomatology is complex and may involve multiple underlying psychiatric disorders
  • Provide an overall profile of an individual’s neurocognitive and psychological strengths and weaknesses as a means of enhancing treatment response and outcome
  • Assess function and inform treatment for individuals with comorbid psychiatric and medical illness
  • Formally evaluate symptoms and functioning prior to initiating or modifying medication or other evidence-based treatments
  • Evaluate for neurocognitive, psychological, and personality characteristics that may impact / impede treatment effectiveness and response
  • Assess for factors / etiologies that may underlie difficulties with impulsivity and/or behavioral dysregulation

Screening:

I also provide psychological screening evaluations for people who are applying for different types of vocational, religious, and other programs including:
  • Fertility Medicine Programs (Ovum Donor and Surrogacy / Gestational Carrier Screening Services)
