Mental Health Screening

A typical screening involves interviewing the client and caregivers, physician, family or other relevant individuals followed by brief testing (between one and two hours) and an open discussion of the test results and treatment recommendations. Depending on the results of the screen, repeat testing at a later date may be recommended.

Some common screening types include the following:

• Memory Problems (Dementia / Alzheimers')
• Anxiety Disorders
• Depressive Disorders
