Types of Assessments offered at Tosa Psych:
There are many reasons you might be considering a psychological evaluation.
You may be experiencing challenges at work, school, or in your relationships and want to understand what might be contributing to those difficulties. You could also be seeking clarification or a second opinion about a diagnosis. Perhaps you've reached a plateau in therapy and are looking for guidance on how to move forward.
Psychological testing can provide valuable insights into the nature and potential causes of these issues. More importantly, it can help you identify effective interventions tailored to your specific needs based on the findings.
At Tosa Psychological Services, we offer comprehensive and targeted psychological evaluations. Each evaluation uses objective and projective measures to produce a thorough appraisal with detailed treatment recommendations and referrals. We recognize your individuality and will tailor our assessments to you based on your psychosocial, medical, and psychiatric history.
Testing focuses on the specific, relevant referral questions that need to be investigated. Psychological evaluations can provide you with a wealth of information about yourself and how you interact with the world. From this assessment, you will gain a more in-depth understanding of your motivations, emotional and cognitive functioning, and gain useful recommendations that support your wellbeing.
This type of testing can also be helpful for you if you’re currently in therapy or are interested in starting therapy soon.
At Tosa Psych, we begin every evaluation process with a client consultation. This will include a thorough interview in which we will ask questions about your background history. In most cases, and always with minors, we will collaborate with family members and other applicable sources that can provide us with additional information about your past history and current level of functioning.
The information provided to us during the consultation will help our team to best assess the appropriate battery of tests for you. The length of the administrative phase is dependent on your specific needs as well as the complexity of your referral question. Our philosophy is that the most meaningful results are yielded during in-person testing. This allows us the chance to interact with and support you throughout the testing experience and will allow you to ask questions as they arise. Tosa Psych will provide you with additional information about scheduling at the time of the referral.
Once you complete the assessments, the evaluator will review and interpret information gathered through the consultation as well as the series of tests. During the scoring and interpretation phase, the evaluator may reach out to gain collateral information when clinically relevant.
Arguably the most important aspect of this process: the results!
Our evaluator will schedule an hour long feedback session with you to discuss their clinical findings and provide you with practical recommendations that you can choose to implement into your life. During this session, you will be given a copy of the psychological report that can be shared with any pertinent parties including family, medical providers, therapists, schools, and/or work.
If after the feedback session you have additional questions or need help connecting to various referrals, we are happy to make ourselves available to you.
