Personal Injury Evaluations
Personal Injury Evaluations
We provide comprehensive psychological evaluations for individuals who have experienced psychological, cognitive, or emotional difficulties following a personal injury. These assessments are often used in the context of legal claims, workers’ compensation cases, or insurance disputes to determine the psychological impact of an accident, injury, or psychological trauma.
Our evaluations are designed to:
Assess the presence and severity of emotional, cognitive, or behavioral symptoms resulting from a physical injury or traumatic event
Differentiate between pre-existing psychological conditions and those caused or exacerbated by the injury
Provide diagnostic clarity and documentation to support legal, insurance, or rehabilitation claims
Offer treatment recommendations to support recovery, adjustment, and improved functioning
What Our Personal Injury Evaluations Include:
A thorough 90-minute clinical interview that explores prior mental health history and current daily functioning
A thorough 90-minute clinical interview that explores the injury and symptom timeline
Standardized psychological testing to assess areas such as mood, anxiety, trauma symptoms, attention, memory, and pain perception
Review of relevant collateral records, such as medical documentation, imaging reports, accident details, or employer notes
Assessment of malingering or symptom exaggeration using validated measures, when appropriate or requested
Collateral interviews
A comprehensive written report with diagnostic impressions, clinical findings, and tailored recommendations for treatment, rehabilitation, or workplace accommodations
Whether you are navigating a legal claim, seeking validation of your symptoms, or preparing for a court hearing, our goal is to provide a fair, thorough, and evidence-based evaluation to help guide next steps and support your recovery.
