Our evaluations give you a blueprint for how you or your child works

An ADHD evaluation can help you better understand how difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity affects your life and the best way to move forward.

An autism evaluation is essential in understanding your child’s needs and developing a plan to provide appropriate support.

A psychoeducational evaluation in reading (dyslexia), writing (dysgraphia), and math (dyscalculia) can be the first step to getting help and support to overcome school or work challenges.

A giftedness assessment can help you accurately assess and identify any areas of special potential you or your child may have.

A psychological evaluation can help determine if you are experiencing anxiety, how severe your anxiety is, what’s causing it, and what specific type.

A psychological evaluation can help determine if you are experiencing depression, including major depressive disorder, dysthymia, and post-partum depression.

A personality assessment can help identify if you have a personality disorder, such as borderline, narcissistic, histrionic, antisocial, or others. We can provide insights into rigid and fixed patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that are no longer serving your long-term goals.

A psychological evaluation can help determine if you have Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), revealing compulsions and obsessions that dominate your daily life and get in the way of your achieving your goals.

A psychological evaluation can help determine if you have Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), exploring the impact of traumatic events on your emotional and psychological well-being.

A psychological evaluation can help identify Bipolar Disorder I or II, distinguishing between periods of elevated mood (mania) and depression that affect your daily life.

A substance abuse evaluation can help determine if you have a Substance Use Disorder, offering insights into patterns of alcohol and/or drug abuse and its impact on your physical and mental health.

An evaluation can help diagnose Eating Disorders and Body Image issues, shedding light on unhealthy eating patterns, body image concerns, and their physical and psychological consequences.

An evaluation can help determine what type of accommodations would be beneficial for students or employees with disabilities. We offer comprehensive evaluations to identify learning and mental health challenges that may impact a person’s academic or professional performance.

I took my son to Huntington Psychological Services for an evaluation. This was my first time working with a psychologist, but they were super kind, caring, and compassionate.

I thought that they did a very thorough job with our daughter and we have a much better idea of how to support her. We probably should have done this a long time ago. They are genuinely nice people who seem to really care.
