Areas of assessment expertise: 

I have conducted thousands of individual psychological assessments. I conduct a range of assessments which include diagnostic interviews (often summarized in the format called a Mental Status Exam) as well as more in-depth assessments utilizing standardized and normed instruments. These assessments include the administration of various testing batteries (e.g., for cognitive ability and/or achievement testing). I personally administer, score, and interpret all tests and surveys. Tests and surveys I routinely administer also include personality trait scales (including personality disorder assessment), symptom report surveys, and reports from knowledgeable collateral contacts as appropriate, e.g., parents, partners, and/or teacher(s).

Below are a list of some of the more common diagnostic/functioning questions I address in written reports:
