Psychiatric Evaluation & Diagnostic Assessment
Supportive, Psychiatric Care - Find Peace and Happiness
Psychiatric Evaluation
During a psychiatric evaluation, you may be asked a wide range of questions so that your mental health professional can understand how your past and present are affecting your current behaviors and state of mind. Both physical and psychiatric symptoms will be discussed to assess their effects on things such as work, school, relationships, and family. Your personal and family history of emotional, behavioral, and developmental disorders may also be discussed. Advanced Medical Psychiatry Group also uses Dual Diagnostic Treatment because many disorders, such as anxiety and depression, tend to accompany and connect to other illnesses (substance abuse disorders).
At Advanced Medical Psychiatry Group, our network of clinics and experienced team of providers are here to work with you individually and with compassion. From addiction and anxiety to depression, eating disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder, our goal is simple: identify the issue and treat you with the right combination of understanding, medication, and innovative therapies. Let us help you find peace, comfort, and happiness.
Getting to a Diagnosis
Our providers can identify your psychological and medical condition, all with a deep regard for what you’re going through. You know what you’re experiencing is real. So do we. Finding relief starts with a precise mental health diagnosis.
The psychiatric care team at Advanced Medical Psychiatry Group starts with a complete psychological evaluation, gathering details about your personal and family background, symptoms, thoughts, feelings, and behavior patterns. Combined with medical and psychological tests, we can uncover a complete picture of your mental health and help you take the next step to emotional wellness.
Psychiatric Conditions We Treat
A diagnosis is a path to wellness. Many behavioral health issues stem from chemical imbalances in the brain. Once we understand what’s wrong, we can care for you with the highest standard of care to get you back to feeling like you again. We offer behavioral health treatment for many psychiatric conditions, including:
· Addiction and Substance Abuse Disorders
· Adjustment Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar disorder, and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
· Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
· Autism Spectrum Disorders
· Eating Disorders
· Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Along the way, your team of experienced psychiatrists and psychotherapists will support you with information about your condition and discuss the best behavioral health services for you. Understanding pain and imbalances in the brain is the first key to making things right. Our job is to open the door to a lifetime of wellness; your job is to walk through it.
Mental Health Treatments
When you think of treatments for behavioral conditions, chances are you think of talk therapy or psychotherapy. For many patients, psychotherapy can provide clarity and exceptional results. But when a chemical imbalance in your brain causes discomfort, our expert psychiatrists are here to help steady you with life-changing medications and behavioral health treatments prescribed by our medically certified team.
Mental health treatments may include any one or combination of the below:
· Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)
· Inpatient and Outpatient Treatments
· Medications, Including Antidepressants, Antipsychotics, Sedatives, Stimulants, and Mood Stabilizers
· Psychosocial Interventions
· Psychotherapy
Above all, we’ll work with you through each obstacle — and milestone — supporting you with whole-person care. Your journey out of depression and confusion isn’t one you have to walk alone. We'll walk beside you, making sure you have the care you need to guide you through.
