Understanding the problem is the first step toward creating lasting change.

At Centre Wellness, our skilled psychologists use a variety of tools and techniques to evaluate emotional and behavioural functioning.

When is a Psychological Assessment Appropriate?

Psychological assessment might be appropriate when you are experiencing challenges that are difficult to understand or manage. This process can be particularly valuable in situations where:

  • Persistent symptoms of depression, anxiety, or other mental health conditions are impacting daily life;
  • There is a need to diagnose conditions such as ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, or occupational injury for access to resources and support;
  • You’re facing difficulties in school, work, or relationships without a clear cause;
  • Previous treatments have been ineffective, and a deeper understanding is needed;
  • You’ve received multiple diagnoses in the past and need clarification;
  • There's a desire to explore personality traits or emotional functioning.

Assessments can provide valuable insights, guiding more targeted and effective interventions.

Benefits of Psychological Assessment:

There are a number of potential benefits of engaging in psychological assessment, including:

  • Clarity and understanding of your mental health and functioning;
  • Precise descriptions of areas of concern and personal strengths;
  • Accurate diagnosis, or a formal rule out;
  • Language to help you communicate your experiences more effectively;
  • Comprehensive treatment recommendations tailored to your specific needs and goals, leading to better therapy outcomes; 
  • Access to needed resources or enhanced treatment options;
  • Becoming empowered to take informed steps toward positive change.
