Mental Health Evaluations

Therapeutic Recovery Network provides full mental health evaluation and assessments. The purpose of a comprehensive mental health evaluation is to identify areas that may require further assessment by other professionals, and to develop a recommended treatment plan based on specific needs and diagnostic information.

“Mental health matters.”

- Kirsten Banks

Some mental health disorders an evaluation may help to diagnose can include:

• Depression and mood disorders

• Anxiety disorders

• Eating disorders

• Attention Deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

• Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

• Substance abuse and addictive disorders

• Bipolar disorder

• Schizophrenia and psychotic disorders

In addition to determining if a person suffers from a mental condition, the evaluation can help determine whether a person has co-occurring substance use disorder.

A mental health evaluation typically consists of two components: a screening and an assessment. The screening is a preliminary appraisal of risk factors to determine if someone needs help to prevent mental health condition from progressing further. The assessment is a more formal and in-depth process that involves interviewing the person to get a more complete picture of their mental health.
