Purpose
This in-depth assessment is designed to provide a thorough understanding of an individual's psychological and psychiatric functioning, including cognitive abilities, personality traits, emotional state, and adaptive behaviors. Unlike a standard medication management intake, this evaluation is ideal for individuals who are not yet diagnosed, have a complex interplay of symptoms, or are uncertain about the diagnoses or treatments that best fit their needs. We offer this service to both children and adults, including those who suspect they may have ADHD but have not yet been formally diagnosed.
This evaluation culminates in a formal, written report that integrates findings from various testing measures and tools, beyond the clinical interview and history, to provide a comprehensive diagnostic picture and clear treatment recommendations.
Evaluation Process:
Intake Interview: A detailed discussion of the individual's history, symptoms, and goals.
Psychological Testing: Administration of standardized tests to assess various aspects of psychological functioning, including:
Personality tests: Assess personality traits, coping mechanisms, and emotional functioning.
Neuropsychological tests: Evaluate cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and executive functioning.
Clinical Interview: An in-depth exploration of the individual's symptoms, experiences, and coping mechanisms.
Diagnostic Assessment: A comprehensive integration of findings from the intake interview, psychological testing, and clinical interview to clarify the diagnostic picture and determine an appropriate diagnosis, if necessary.
Treatment Recommendations: A personalized treatment plan developed based on the evaluation findings, discussed in a complementary 30-minute follow-up session. This plan may include a range of interventions, not necessarily limited to medication management. Options could focus on lifestyle adjustments, holistic or integrative interventions, or targeted psychotherapy recommendations, depending on the individual’s needs.
Who Should Choose a Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation?
This evaluation is distinct from a typical medication management intake and is particularly suited for:
Individuals who have not yet been diagnosed with a mental health condition and are seeking clarity.
Individuals experiencing a complex mix of symptoms and are unsure what diagnosis or treatment approach best fits their situation.
Adults or children who suspect they have ADHD but have not been formally diagnosed.
Individuals looking for a detailed, formal written report that integrates outside testing measures and provides a clear, personalized treatment plan.
Individuals seeking a holistic approach that includes lifestyle interventions or therapeutic recommendations beyond medication.
Key Benefits:
Accurate Diagnosis: This thorough evaluation provides the clarity needed to accurately diagnose mental health conditions.
Personalized Treatment: A tailored plan based on extensive data from testing and interviews, not limited to medication—other options include lifestyle changes, holistic treatments, or psychotherapy.
Comprehensive Understanding: Helps individuals and their families better understand the interplay of strengths and challenges.
Formal Report: Leave the session with a formal written document outlining the findings and personalized treatment plan.
Purpose
To provide comprehensive medication management for individuals with a variety of psychological conditions, including:
Mood disorders: Depression, bipolar disorder
Anxiety disorders: Generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder
Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder
Trauma and Related Disorders: Posttraumatic stress disorder, Acute stress disorder
Medication Management Process
Initial assessment: A thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause of the psychological issue and identify any potential contributing factors.
Medication selection: Careful consideration of the individual's symptoms, medical history, and preferences to choose the most appropriate medication.
Medication monitoring: Regular follow-up appointments to monitor the effectiveness of the medication, adjust dosages as needed, and address any side effects.
Education: Providing information about the medication, its potential benefits and risks, and how to manage side effects.
Coordination of care: Working closely with other healthcare providers, such as therapists or psychiatrists, to ensure comprehensive treatment.
Who Should Consider Medication Management:
Individuals with a diagnosis of a psychological condition.
Individuals who are experiencing symptoms of a psychological condition but have not yet been diagnosed.
Individuals who are not responding adequately to non-pharmacological treatments, such as therapy.
Note: Medication management is approached as one piece of a larger healing puzzle. In our integrative model, we explore the root causes of symptoms—such as nutritional imbalances, sleep disruption, hormonal shifts, trauma history, and environmental stressors—and use medications only when necessary to support the body’s natural healing processes. A personalized, whole-person plan is developed in collaboration with each patient to align medical, nutritional, psychological, and lifestyle interventions.
Are you worried about your child's development? Or are you an adult who has concerns about social challenges and repetitive behaviors? Our autism screening services can help you get the answers you need. We offer a quick and easy assessment to see if you or your child might benefit from further evaluation.
Purpose: To provide a preliminary assessment for individuals suspected of having Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This screening can help identify potential cases early and facilitate timely referrals for further evaluation and diagnosis.
ASD Screening Process
Initial Assessment: A brief assessment is conducted, often consisting of several questionnaires and clinical interview with the client or caregiver. This assessment gathers information about the individual's social communication, social interaction, and repetitive behaviors.
Screening Tools: Standardized screening tools, such as the Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ), Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ), Autism Spectrum Screening Questionnaire, or others may be used to gather objective data.
Referral: If the screening results indicate a high likelihood of ASD, the individual will be referred for a comprehensive evaluation with a qualified professional to confirm the diagnosis.
Who Should Consider a ASD Screening?
Parents or caregivers of children who may be exhibiting signs or symptoms of ASD, such as delayed speech, repetitive behaviors, or difficulty with social interactions.
Adults who suspect they may have ASD.
Healthcare providers who are concerned about a patient's development or behavior.
Key Benefits of Early Screening
Early Identification: Screening can help identify potential cases of ASD early, allowing for timely intervention and support.
Improved Outcomes: Early intervention can lead to better outcomes for individuals with ASD, including improved social communication, adaptive skills, and overall quality of life.
Reduced Anxiety: Early screening can provide families with answers and reduce anxiety related to concerns about their child's development.
Note: Screening is not a definitive diagnosis. A comprehensive evaluation by a qualified professional is necessary to confirm a diagnosis of ASD.
Are you noticing your child struggling with focus, organization, emotional regulation, or learning?
Or are you an adult who has always felt “different,” overwhelmed easily, or constantly fighting your own brain to get things done?
Our ADHD screening and functional assessment process helps identify not only whether ADHD may be present — but why symptoms are happening and what is driving them.
Purpose
To provide a comprehensive, functional-first screening for ADHD, including contributory factors like sleep, iron deficiency, inflammation, nutrition, sensory processing, co-regulation capacity, trauma history, and emotional load.
ADHD is not a behavior problem — behavior is communication. ADHD symptoms are brain-based signals that something is dysregulated, overloaded, or unsupported. Screening is the first step toward understanding what the brain needs.
ADHD Functional Screening Process
Initial Assessment
Brief structured interview + history (child or adult) to explore symptoms across home, school/work, peer relationships, executive functioning, and nervous system patterns.
Functional Lens Review
We screen for contributors that mimic or worsen ADHD (thyroid, ferritin, sleep disturbance, trauma-based dysregulation, gut-brain issues, sensory overload).
Tools Used
Standardized ADHD rating scales + executive functioning measures
(Examples: Vanderbilt, ASRS, EF Rating Inventory, SCARED if anxiety overlap suspected)
Follow Through
If ADHD symptoms are likely, we move forward into full diagnostic evaluation and individualized treatment planning — which may include supplements first, lifestyle interventions, school supports, therapy pathways, and medication if indicated.
Who Should Consider an ADHD Screening?
Parents concerned about attention, impulsivity, distractibility or emotional overwhelm
Children struggling academically despite effort
Teens who feel “burned out” or misunderstood emotionally
Adults who are constantly starting but not finishing, overwhelmed by tasks, or have lived their whole life compensating
Key Benefits of Early Screening
Clear direction + clarity
Faster access to interventions that actually work
Reduced labeling, shame, and blame
Opportunity for strengths-based, preventative care — BEFORE crisis
Parent understanding → better advocacy + better outcomes
Note: Screening does not equal diagnosis. A full diagnostic assessment follows if ADHD is suspected.
Functional Lab Testing
Not every client will need lab work, but for some, uncovering biochemical, hormonal, nutritional, or metabolic imbalances can be the key to lasting healing. When indicated, functional testing helps identify root causes that traditional labs may miss—guiding precise, personalized treatment.
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
A simple CBC can provide clues about lingering viral infections, including latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Lyme disease, and even parasitic infections.
Metabolic Functioning Assessment
- This includes a comprehensive metabolic panel, insulin, hemoglobin A1C, leptin, a lipid panel, apolipoprotein A and B, and a full thyroid panel.
- Did you know? You can have insulin resistance even if you are at a healthy weight and your labs appear "normal".
Vitamin and Mineral Assessment
- We check key vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B1, B3, B6, vitamin D, zinc, copper, and a full iron panel with ferritin levels.
- Did you know? Many of these nutrients are essential for producing neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.
Adrenal Function and Stress Response Evaluation
- We assess cortisol, cortisol-binding globulin, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), DHEA-S, aldosterone, and renin levels to get a picture of your adrenal health.
- Did you know? Both acute and chronic stressors impact our HPA (hypothalamic- pituitary-adrenal) axis in distinct ways.
Hormone and Fertility Assessment
- Hormonal levels such as estradiol, estrone, progesterone, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, free and total testosterone, prolactin, and AMH are tested.
- Did you know? Although hormone levels are best assessed through urine and saliva metabolites using DUTCH testing, blood tests can still offer valuable insights into your hormonal health.
Inflammation and Autoimmunity Assessment
- We evaluate markers such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), sedimentation rate (ESR), antinuclear antibodies (ANA), thyroid antibodies, specific autoimmune antibodies, histamine, anti-gliadin IgA antibodies, deaminated gliadin antibodies, and tissue transglutaminase antibodies.
- Did you know? These tests can help identify sources of inflammation from conditions like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and autoimmune gastrointestinal disorders like celiac disease.
Digestive health is at the root of overall wellness. The GI Map is a cutting-edge stool test that analyzes your gut microbiome, identifies harmful pathogens, and evaluates digestive function. Whether you're dealing with chronic digestive issues, like bloating, IBS, diarrhea, or unexplained fatigue and mood issues, this test provides a detailed roadmap to healing your gut.

What makes My Mind & Me different is its belief that true healing is not linear — it’s relational.
- Children heal when parents are equipped.
- Parents heal when they feel capable.
- Teachers heal when they understand their students.
- And providers heal when they see measurable hope instead of endless cycles of crisis management.
The goal is not merely remission of symptoms — it’s the restoration of connection, curiosity, and confidence in the child and everyone around them.
