Psychological Assessment
We believe understanding is the first step towards change
At The Lexicon Therapy Practice, we believe that understanding your unique mental health needs is the first step toward effective treatment and lasting progress. Our comprehensive psychological assessment services provide a thorough and nuanced understanding of you and your mental health, enabling you to make sense of your experiences and access personalised treatment.
What is Psychological Assessment?
Psychological assessment is a multifaceted process that can involve the use of standardised tests, clinical interviews, and behavioural observations to understand various aspects of your mental health. This process helps us gather essential information about your cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning, forming a complete picture of your mental well-being.
Components of Psychological Assessment
- In-Depth Clinical Interviews: We conduct detailed interviews to explore your personal history, current concerns, and overall functioning. This step helps us understand the context of your experiences and symptoms.
- Standardised Testing: Utilising reliable and validated assessment tools, we may measure specific aspects of your mental health, such as personality traits, emotional states, cognitive abilities, and more. These tests provide objective data to support our clinical findings.
- Behavioural Observations: Observing your behaviour can reveal patterns and triggers that may not be evident through self-report alone. This helps us identify areas for targeted intervention.
- Holistic Information Gathering: with your consent, we can also consider information from family members or medical records when appropriate. This comprehensive approach ensures we have a well-rounded understanding of your situation.
