I provide psychological assessments for individuals who are referred by other professionals (doctors, other therapists, lawyers, etc), to people who want to learn more about themselves, to assess for many symptoms and disorders, to candidates for the clergy, prospective adoptive parents, individuals facing immigration issues of all sorts, candidates for police, fire and other similar lines of duty, as well as parents involved in the foster care system.
In a psychological assessment/evaluation, apart from the specific contexts named above, some of the areas that I cover are:
Intelligence
Sense of self
Relationship to others
Emotional functioning
Adaptive functioning
Ability to cope with stress
Memory
