Independent Evaluations
Clients are referred by lawyers, insurers, healthcare professionals and other third parties for specific Independent Psychological Evaluations. (IPEs) such as Neuropsychological and Psychological evaluations. Several of our psychologists provide these services. Independent Psychological Evaluations involve a methodology that includes interviews and psychological tests designed to contribute to the psychologist’s professional opinion about the state of mind and psychological functioning of the client. The referral questions typically involve the courts, lawyers or insurance companies. The evaluation is conducted by a psychologist who has not previously been involved in the client’s treatment and will not be seeing the client for treatment in the future. The psychologist provides an impartial, objective opinion about the client’s state of mind and the probable causes of that state of mind.
