Our clinicians also have extensive experience in the area of psychological assessment. Assessment involves a period of information gathering and analysis followed by the formulation of a professional opinion. Interviewing, observation, testing, and record review are methods that are often employed during the assessment process. At Compass, we offer diagnostic assessment (used to determine if a client qualifies for a psychiatric diagnosis), psychoeducational assessment (used to identify educational strengths and weaknesses and provide recommendations), and relationship/attachment assessments (used to establish attachment behaviors/strategies and provide suggestions for individuals seeking to improve their relationships or parents wishing to support their child’s development).
