Assessment

Dr. Katzinger provides assessment services for children and adolescents.  Assessment refers to an investigative process with two broad goals:  (1) to gain a better understanding of the nature of the presenting problem and (2) to provide a framework for effective and timely treatment.  An assessment might include standardized measures of IQ, academic achievement, adaptive skills, behavior, and emotional functioning as well as diagnostic and developmental interviews with caregivers and teachers.  The assessment process includes formal testing, report writing, and feedback.  The formal testing process can take up to one full day, and feedback is given within two weeks from the date of assessment. 

Assessment services provided include:

        Emotional (anxiety, depression)
