Psychological Evaluations

Psychological evaluations can provide clarity, answer specific questions, and help guide important personal, occupational, legal, or benefits-related decisions. Dr. Kelsey offers focused, independent evaluations tailored to the purpose of the referral.

Each evaluation begins with a consultation to understand what is being requested, determine whether the service is appropriate, and explain the process, estimated timeline, and fees.
