Evidence-based practice is the gold standard. For certain types of treatment, including medication management and determining the right psychotherapy, psychological evaluation may be necessary. Generally this includes an interview with a psychologist and a certain amount of written questionnaires or more objective psychological assessments. Your psychologist then writes a thorough report and recommendations for next steps. Pricing varies depending on the type of evaluation needed.

There are a number of reasons your attorney may recommend a psychological evaluation. Information regarding diagnosis and your functioning can help your lawyer to best represent you and help you obtain the support you need.

Of note, Power of the Mind Psychology does not provide forensic evaluations to guide certain court decisions such as divorce, custody, sex offender evaluations, or court-mandated treatment recommendations. Contact for availability, appropriateness, and pricing.
