Assessment
The assessment process typically begins with a 60-minute intake to obtain background information and assess areas of concern. The psychologist may recommend completion of psychological testing and may ask for collateral sources of information, particularly during child or adolescent assessments. When the assessment is complete, a feedback meeting is arranged to discuss the results, diagnostic impressions, and recommendations.
