Psychological Testing and Evaluations

Get Diagnosed

Our comprehensive testing services can help you answer your questions and concerns with confidence.

Overview of the Testing Process

Step One: The Consultation

Once you speak with our care-coordinator and feel comfortable getting started, you will be scheduled for your consultation with the testing specialist. Consultations are conducted through a convenient and private video session. If you and the testing specialist agree you are the right fit for the full testing process, you will then move forward with the next phase.

Step Two: The Evaluation and Assessment

During this process you will meet with the clinical neuropsychologist you have been matched with, either through telehealth video sessions or in-person at our San Francisco office. The full process varies in the amount of time it takes to complete depending on the complexity of testing that needs to be done. This will be discussed during the consultation, so you will have a better understanding of how long it will take to get an accurate and valid diagnosis. It consists of a clinical interview, a battery of forms and tests, and collateral interviews. Once all testing and data gathering is complete, the clinician interprets the results and integrates this information into a comprehensive evaluation which includes diagnosis and treatment recommendations. This thorough process is considered the gold standard for diagnosing all types of neuropsychological disorders.

Step Three: The Feedback Session

After completing the consultation and testing process for autism, you will have a final feedback session with your clinician. In this session, they will review any diagnosis they have come up with, help you understand their reasoning, and answer any questions you have about your results. They will recommend next steps, such as working with another care provider or therapist, and give you a better understanding of how this affects your day to day life. You will leave the testing process with a better understanding of your experience and what to do about it.

Why comprehensive testing?

If you want to seek out the most useful treatment and resources, you need to accurately diagnose the problem.

While there are questionnaires and other informal measures, these don’t deliver a high degree of confidence and reliability. When the picture is more complicated, it requires a skilled and knowledgeable expert to provide an accurate diagnosis.

An accurate diagnosis will allow you to better understand why you are the way you are, and identify resources to help you excel.
