Adolescent Evaluations

Adolescents can struggle with rules, homework, and relationships making parenting more difficult. Teachers may also report problems at school. When this happens, psychological evaluation can tell you what blocks your child’s ability to feel happier or behave more constructively. Results provide a wealth of useful information for you, your son or daughter’s teachers, and other professionals to guide your child in the most helpful direction.

 

Adult Evaluations

Psychological evaluations help identify problems that may be affecting your ability to cope successfully with your environment. In some situations evaluations provide fundamental information about symptoms and the severity of depression, bipolar, anxiety, PTSD or other disorders. In other complex situations, evaluations can identify accurate diagnoses and describe how personality characteristics affect coping, relationships, and achievement in various life arenas. For adults, evaluation recommendations are often used for psychiatrists and medication management, employment situations, court-ordered issues, mandated substance abuse treatment, or to promote effective therapy services.

 

The skilled professionals at Anne Huebner & Associates use a variety of evidence-based tools for psychological evaluations and forensic evaluations. Some of these include IQ tests for thinking and memory skills and abilities, personality tests for emotional distress and coping styles, and questionnaires about stressors, relationship issues, and personal functioning.
