Psychological Assessments in Singapore
Psychological assessments are crucial in understanding and addressing mental health concerns in adults and children. These assessments are comprehensive evaluations that involve the systematic collection of information to analyse an individual’s cognitive, emotional, social, and behavioural functioning. While psychological assessments are commonly associated with diagnosing psychological disorders in children and adolescents, they are equally important for adults, especially considering that certain disorders may manifest or become more apparent later in life.
Psychological assessments typically involve a combination of clinical interviews, standardised tests, self-report measures, and behavioural observations. These assessments help our psychologists identify and understand the nature and severity of psychological symptoms, contributing to formulating an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.
Early detection and intervention are essential for managing psychological disorders effectively. Promoting mental health awareness, reducing stigma, and encouraging routine psychological check-ups can contribute to the timely identification and support of children and adults grappling with mental health challenges.
