What Is a Psychological consultation?
A psychological consultation is a structured evaluation using clinical interviews, behavioral observations, and standardized testing tools to assess how someone thinks, feels, and behaves.
It can help answer questions like:
- Why am I struggling with focus or memory?
- Could I be experiencing depression, anxiety, or a mood disorder?
- What’s contributing to emotional or behavioral changes?
- What diagnosis best explains my symptoms?
Psychological consultations can be used to inform treatment, academic planning, workplace accommodations, and legal or medical decisions.
