If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about what’s going on with your mental health, a psychiatric evaluation is often the first — and most important — step toward getting clarity and support.

🧠 What Is a Psychiatric Evaluation?
A psychiatric evaluation is a thorough, professional assessment of your mental health symptoms, history, and functioning. It’s not just about getting a diagnosis — it’s about understanding the full picture so you can get the care you need.
During your evaluation, your provider may explore:
Your current symptoms (like anxiety, depression, trouble focusing, mood swings)
Your mental health history
Your medical background and medications
Life stressors, trauma, or family history
Potential diagnoses and treatment options
The goal is to develop a personalized plan that may include medication, therapy, lifestyle support, or a combination of approaches.

Our evaluations are conducted by board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioners who specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions like:

And more
