At Auburn Psychological Wellness Center (APWC), we can do psychological assessment with clients age 8 through all of adulthood. We provide several types of psychological testing, including:
- Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Learning Assessment

- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Testing
- Personality Assessment
- Psychodiagnostic Assessment (Mental Health Diagnosis)
- Emotional Support Animal (ESA) Evaluations
How Assessment Can Help
Psychological assessment, also called psychological evaluation or psychological testing, can be helpful for several reasons. For example, assessment results might help:
- Identify a specific mental health diagnosis that is causing distress
- Create more effective treatment plans to support your mental health
- Determine eligibility for academic accommodations
- Support employment accommodations for disability
- Suggest additional treatment options (e.g., medication, therapy)
- Support planned medical procedures (e.g., gender confirmation surgery for gender dysphoria)
- Suggest emotional support animal (ESA) accommodations (review our ESA conditions before scheduling)
What to Expect
Our assessments are conducted by a licensed psychological technician and/or licensed psychologist. We start with a clinical interview to learn more about your concerns and history. You will also complete one or more psychological tests with a psychological technician and/or psychologist. Because of our comprehensive assessment process, you will likely need to attend more than one testing session. Most testing must be conducted in person. Types of tests and length of testing depend on the question(s) you seek to answer, but generally address cognitive or intellectual functioning, personality, emotional functioning, mental health symptoms, attention/concentration, and/or academic achievement. Your assessment provider will compile the results into a comprehensive report, with recommendations, that will be shared with you during a feedback meeting.
