PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS in NYC

At Park West Psychology, we offer psychological testing to provide accurate diagnoses, guide treatment, and increase self-understanding. I’m Dr. Daniel Clark, a licensed psychologist offering both therapy and assessment services. We’ve seen how the right evaluation can improve therapy outcomes and help people move forward with clarity and confidence.

People seek evaluations for many reasons—whether to understand attention or learning challenges, get accommodations, or simply gain insight into their mental health. We provide assessments for children, teens, and adults. Each evaluation includes interviews, testing, and a comprehensive report with clear, personalized recommendations.

Assessments Offered

We offer a range of evaluations to meet a variety of needs. Learn more about each of our services below:

Identify symptoms of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children, teens, or adults. I assess attention, executive functioning, and behavior to help determine whether a diagnosis is appropriate.

Explore whether signs of autism spectrum disorder are present through specialized tools and observations. We evaluate social communication, sensory processing, and developmental history for children and adults.

A comprehensive look at how the brain is functioning. This assessment measures memory, attention, processing speed, and more. Often used when there are concerns about cognitive functioning due to injury, illness, or developmental issues.

Understand learning strengths and challenges, including issues with reading, writing, or math. These evaluations often help diagnose learning disorders or guide IEP/504 plans in school settings.

Testing Accommodations

We offer documentation for testing and school-based accommodations (such as SAT, GRE, or college-level accommodations). These evaluations determine if a disability qualifies for extra time, alternate settings, or other supports.

We provide psychological evaluations required for pre-adoption or post-adoption processes. These assessments help ensure adoptive parents or families are prepared and supported.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A psychological assessment is a structured process that uses interviews, questionnaires, and standardized tests to better understand how someone thinks, feels, and functions. It often results in a diagnosis, if one is present, and includes detailed recommendations.

  • Evaluations are highly individualized and involve many hours of work, both face-to-face and behind the scenes. Clinicians spend time scoring and interpreting tests, writing reports, and offering feedback. The final product is a professional, comprehensive roadmap for your care.

  • After an initial consultation, I’ll schedule your testing sessions. These may take place over one or more appointments. Once testing is complete, you’ll receive a written report and a feedback session to review the results and next steps.
