Mental health difficulties can be complex and they often co-occur. There is so much overlap between different conditions. Well-intentioned therapists, psychiatrists, and doctors may encourage treatments based on an inaccurate diagnosis. Psychological testing is a means to attain an accurate understanding of yourself along with an official diagnosis. An accurate diagnosis is based on up-to-date knowledge of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM 5), current research, and the clinician’s experience working with the specific condition.Psychological testing includes the use of Personality Assessments like the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI-3), Millon Clinical Multi-Axial Inventory (MCMI-IV), and the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI). These assessment tools measure for Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety Disorders, PTSD, Personality Disorders, and other aspects of functioning. Coupled with these tests, I administer a thorough interview comparing your responses to your testing scores to generate a clear diagnosis and helpful recommendations.
