A psychiatric evaluation is a critical first step in understanding and addressing mental health concerns. It involves a thorough assessment of an individual’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to determine the best course of treatment.

During the evaluation, a licensed mental health professional will:
- Review medical and mental health history
- Assess current symptoms and emotional well-being
- Evaluate cognitive function and behavior patterns
- Discuss personal, social, and family background
Why is a Psychiatric Evaluation Important?
A psychiatric evaluation helps in:
- Identifying mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or schizophrenia
