Comprehensive Evaluation

Comprehensive Evaluation

Careful, Thorough Assessment from the Start

At New Insights Behavioral Health, every treatment relationship begins with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation.

We take the time to understand each patient’s full story — not just the symptoms — to ensure an accurate diagnosis and a clear, effective plan for care.

Our Approach

The evaluation process is designed to uncover the root of what’s happening and identify the best next steps for treatment.

Our clinicians review not only current concerns, but also medical history, family background, stressors, and personal goals.

During the evaluation, your provider will:

  • Gather detailed information about symptoms, health history, and daily functioning
  • Review past treatments or medications and how they affected you
  • Explore contributing factors such as sleep, stress, trauma, and environment
  • Provide education about possible diagnoses and treatment options
  • Develop a personalized care plan that may include therapy, medication, or both

Each evaluation is guided by clinical expertise and current research, ensuring that every recommendation is well-informed and evidence-based.

Why It Matters

Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of successful treatment.

A careful, comprehensive evaluation helps avoid trial-and-error approaches, leading to faster relief and more targeted care.

Our goal is to help patients and families gain clarity, confidence, and direction — right from the start.

Who We See

We provide psychiatric evaluations for children, teens, and adults (ages 10 and up).

Whether it’s a new concern or a long-standing issue that hasn’t improved with previous treatment, we take a fresh, thorough look to ensure nothing is missed.
