Psychology

Dr. Sara Streufert is able to provide comprehensive psychological/neuropsychological evaluations for children, adolescents and young adults ages 6-21 years old. Psychological testing involves working with a licensed psychologist to conduct assessments and screenings to evaluate an individual’s cognitive and learning abilities, emotional functioning and behavior patterns to help determine any existing mental health or psychological conditions. The purpose of these tests is to form a diagnosis and build a treatment plan to help improve an individual’s overall wellbeing.

Diagnostic evaluations take place over several appointments and typically include a clinical interview, testing appointments, and information gathering from other sources (e.g., teachers, medical records). Once the evaluation is complete, a feedback appointment will be scheduled. At this time, Dr. Streufert will go over the results, provide recommendations, and answer questions with the individual/family.

Testing services for the following diagnoses:

· Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder

· Autism spectrum disorder

· Intellectual disabilities

· Anxiety

· Depression and mood disorders

· Oppositional defiant and conduct disorders

· PTSD and trauma related disorders

· Learning disabilities

We do NOT offer legal or forensic evaluations including:

· Parent custody evaluations

· Co-Parenting evaluations

· Court-mandated evaluations

Please check with your insurance to confirm that psychological testing is a covered service. Also please be aware that psychological testing benefits may be managed by a different insurance carrier than your primary medical insurance and may have restrictions on services (e.g., number of visits, testing allowed or other psychological services).

Due to limited availability and the time required to do a thorough assessment of each patient, any late cancellations (less than 24 hours in-advance) or no-shows will incur a fee of $350 (for the initial intake) and $275 (for any other visits). Please see Dr. Streufert's Financial Policy for more details.

As these appointments can range from 1-2 hours, we ask that no other siblings/children attend the visit.
