Psychological Evaluations

“What’s wrong with me?”

You ask yourself this question again and again, usually as you wipe tears from your eyes.

You’ve always been sensitive. But lately, you can’t help but wonder if you’re being overly sensitive. The smallest things set you off, and you don’t like it.

You’re curious whether there’s something that can explain why. It’s not that you want a diagnosis, but it would be nice to understand yourself better.

Because you haven’t figured it out on your own…

The TikTok reels and online tests have you confused.

Am I Autistic? An ADHDer?

Is it trauma?

Do I have Borderline Personality Disorder?

Is this really all just from stress?

Is it a medical thing? (Maybe you even went to the doctor, but your concerns were dismissed!)

Is it all in my head? (Perhaps your own therapist dismissed your concerns!)

Am I totally off base? Why hasn’t anyone else picked up on how I’m different?

The lack of answers is frustrating!

Getting your concerns tossed aside is NOT helpful.

You see and FEEL yourself not fitting in, being somehow different from others. That isn’t going anywhere.

Of course, you want to understand why you feel like a square peg that doesn’t fit into a round hole!

Why is it so hard to get an answer?!

There are a lot of people out there who don’t feel equipped to answer your questions. It sucks… I know.

Some of them are counselors who were not trained to diagnose. You probably don’t want answers from them anyways.

Other mental health professionals avoid pathologizing by avoiding labels. They might be onto something AND have some ableist biases about certain mental health diagnoses.

And often, doctors don’t have the time to dig in and explore whether what you’re presenting with is a mental health concern, even though mental health concerns can overshadow some medical problems.

You deserve clarity.

Sometimes we need a name or a label to understand how our brain operates. It helps us have more compassion for ourselves. It allows us to lean into our strengths. It helps us get the right accommodations in our environments. We can become our best advocates when we understand our needs.

Realizing you are autistic helps everything make sense. It can help you slowly unmask to yourself and others, which will make you feel less stressed and overwhelmed in the long run.

Understanding that your ADHD was overlooked because you are so freaking smart and have figured out how to support yourself on your own can be liberating.

Seeing how Borderline makes sense of your past can open doors, helping you take better care of yourself and connect to a provider that can help.

Hearing someone label your past as trauma sets you on a path to acceptance and healthier boundaries.

And learning that there’s no fitting mental health diagnosis will point you in the right direction to address potential medical concerns. That can be a huge relief.

Don’t go on floundering in the dark…

… spinning your wheels, wondering what to do, and second-guessing yourself. That’s exhausting.

I can help you get more than just a label or diagnosis.
