Full Psychological Assessments
Psychological assessments are completed for a variety of reasons, but the goal is to examine a person’s emotional and behavioural symptoms in order to identify and, if warranted, diagnose any psychological disorders.
Diagnosing psychological disorders is a controlled act in Ontario, restricted to Psychologists, Psychological Associates, and Physicians.
A psychological assessment typically consists of two parts: a clinical interview and psychometric testing. The overall duration of the assessment can vary in length, but a typical psychological assessment will last 2 to 4 hours. If necessary, this may be split into multiple sessions.
Following the assessment itself, we will complete a comprehensive report that contains information about your background, symptoms, diagnoses, prognosis for recovery, and recommendations for treatment. We will then schedule a follow-up session, during which we will review this information with you and address any questions or concerns you might have.
