Service Description

What is Psychiatric Evaluation and Diagnosis?

A psychiatric evaluation is the essential first step in understanding your mental health. At FC Psychiatry, our board-certified providers take the time to get to know you—not just your symptoms.

Through a thoughtful combination of clinical interviews, standardized assessments, and medical history, we build a complete picture of your mental health. Our evaluations are designed to uncover the root causes of emotional or behavioral challenges and guide us toward the most effective, evidence-based treatment options.

Our Psychiatric Evaluation process

WhatCan You Expect?

01Initial Consultation

We begin with a warm, judgment-free conversation—whether in person or via Telehealth. You’ll discuss your concerns, goals, and history with a licensed provider.

02Comprehensive Assessment

We gather information through interviews, observation, and (when appropriate) additional testing to gain a full understanding of your emotional, cognitive, and behavioral health.

03Personalized Diagnosis

After careful analysis, we provide a clear diagnosis (if applicable) and explain what it means for you. We welcome questions and empower you with understanding.

04Tailored Treatment Plan

Together, we create a personalized care plan that may include medication management, therapy referrals, or ongoing psychiatric support.
