pSYCHIATRIC ASSESSMENT

A psychiatric assessment is a detailed evaluation designed to understand your emotional, behavioral, and cognitive health. It helps identify mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, or other psychological concerns that may affect your daily functioning and relationships.
At Vitality Wellness Clinic, our licensed providers use evidence-based tools and compassionate interviews to assess your symptoms, stressors, and lifestyle factors. The goal is to build a complete picture of your mental well-being and create a personalized treatment plan that supports lasting recovery and balance.
