Therapist Overview
Dr. Joe exclusively provides psychological testing, at which he has 20+ years of experience. Testing is a great way to answer questions about what’s going on with a person in order to guide treatment and document one’s eligibility for services and funding, as well as to demystify mental processes that seem abstract and hard to understand. Testing can clarify diagnoses, give a picture of one’s attentional and emotional state, determine one’s cognitive/learning and developmental levels, and offer data as to if an ongoing form of treatment is working. Examinees often have fun on test day! Special needs can usually be accommodated. I offer testing for attention/memory, personality/emotional, cognitive/IQ, academic/LD, and developmental/functional/autism domains. By contrast, I do NOT offer neuropsychological (brain injury, dementia), parent fitness, sexual abuse, risk/safety, sex offender, or forensic/court-ordered testing. Feedback with report is usually within two weeks of test day. Testing is called for when you have questions about longstanding challenges that have been hard to get a handle on, or worrisome signs that you’re concerned signal a disorder emerging, even hard-to-define questions with a sense that “something else is going on here.” My reports are designed to give the patient a unique voice, often missing in mental health!
