What is Psychological Testing?

If you or a family member has been referred for psychological testing, you probably have some questions about what to expect. Or you may have heard about psychological testing and wonder if you or a family member should be tested. Psychological testing may sound intimidating, but it’s designed to help you.

In many ways, psychological testing and assessment are similar to medical tests. If a patient has physical symptoms, a primary care provider may order X-rays or blood tests to understand what’s causing those symptoms. The results of the tests will help inform develop a treatment plan.

Understanding diagnosing Autism

ASD can sometimes be detected at 18 months or younger. By age 2, a diagnosis by an experienced professional can be considered very reliable.[1] However, many children do not receive a final diagnosis until much older. This delay means that children with an ASD might not get the help they need.

Diagnosing an ASD takes two steps:

Developmental Screening
Comprehensive Diagnostic Evaluation

All children are recommended for screening for developmental delays and disabilities during regular well-child visits.

9 months
18 months
24 or 30 months
Additional screening might be needed if a child is at high risk for developmental problems due to preterm birth, low birth weight or other reasons.

We offer a variety of professional development workshops for teachers on classroom behavior management, developmental milestones, developing social-emotional behavior skills, effective behavioral interventions, and more. Our experts are skilled and experienced professionals with training in behavioral modifications and child development. If you’re interested in booking one of our experts for these services, don’t hesitate to contact us!

Training workshops are an excellent way to develop professional skills, gain knowledge on how to deal with various behaviors and learn different techniques for improving a client’s overall level of functioning. Although the workshops may be helpful to all behavior, mental health, education service providers we are only able to grant CEUs to professional behavior analysts who have already have a bachelor’s level (BCaBA) or master’s level (BCBA) coursework in behavior analysis.
