Assessment & Diagnosis

A diagnostic assessment is the first step in understanding your mental health needs. It involves a comprehensive clinical interview, discussion of your current concerns, relevant personal history, and may include standardized questionnaires or screening tools. The goal is to develop a clear picture of your emotional, cognitive, and behavioral functioning to help determine whether a mental health diagnosis is appropriate and to guide treatment planning. This process is collaborative, respectful, and tailored to your unique situation, providing clarity and direction as you begin or continue your therapeutic journey. You will receive a full diagnostic report at the end of your assessment, following your feedback appointment.
