WHAT IS IT?
Psychological testing uses a variety of standardized measures to clarify diagnoses, assist with treatment, and is used before medication to help understand the presenting problem
WHAT CAN IT DIAGNOSE?
Psychological testing is used to diagnose ADHD, Autism, Learning Disorders, Fine Motor Problems, Anxiety, Giftedness, Personality Disorders, and Substance Abuse problems
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
It helps save money and time by understanding comprehensive problems at the outset and treating the underlying problem not the symptoms
Often, adults began realizing that symptoms that they had in childhood continue into adulthood. Many adults did not have the access to care that we currently have with regards to mental health diagnoses and psychoeducation. Thus, sometimes problems were overlooked in childhood that may be treatable today. Often in practice, a child will be diagnosed with a disorder and the parent will say, “That sounds just like me!” If that is the case for you, Dr. Baker also offers adult testing for ADHD, learning accommodations for college/higher education, anxiety and mood disorder testing, and a variety of specific measures to assist with helping the client live their best life.
