We specialize in comprehensive psychological testing and assessment for children, adolescents, and adults. Our evaluations are individualized to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring a highly personalized and thorough assessment that provides diagnostic clarity, answers to your important questions, and offers a clear roadmap toward recovery and support.

We also offer collaborative therapeutic assessment, a unique approach that integrates traditional testing with therapeutic aims. This method not only provides diagnostic clarity but also serves as a brief therapeutic intervention, typically spanning 2-5 sessions. Clients and clinicians work together to make sense of the test results within the context of the client’s life, leading to a deeper self-understanding and promoting meaningful change.

• Expertise: Our team includes clinicians with extensive clinical experience, trained at top-tier institutions such as Harvard, Brown, Penn, and NYU. They have also trained hundreds of clinical psychologists, ensuring you receive care from highly knowledgeable and skilled professionals.

• Exclusive, Highly Private Care: Our private-pay, fee-for-service model ensures that your privacy is prioritized at the highest level, allowing for discreet services in a secure and confidential environment. By remaining out-of-network, we eliminate the influence of external entities on your care, enabling a direct and unfiltered relationship between you and your clinician. This approach ensures that every aspect of your assessment is guided solely by our expertise, tailored exclusively to your needs, and unimpeded by third-party restrictions.

• Assessment Focus: Unlike many providers who offer assessment as one of many services, we specialize exclusively in psychological testing and assessment for children, adolescents, and adults. This focused expertise allows us to deliver specialized, in-depth evaluations tailored to each client’s unique needs. Our assessments provide diagnostic clarity, answer your most pressing questions, and offer a clear, evidence-based path to recovery and support.

• Personalized Experience: We provide a level of care that stands out from the often impersonal and cumbersome experience found in large mental health corporations. With us, decisions regarding your care are made solely with your well-being in mind—never influenced by shareholder interests or other competing priorities. You won’t face long wait times or feel like just another number. Instead, you’ll have direct access to your psychologist and receive highly personalized, attentive care, tailored specifically to your needs.

• Convenient Location: We are located along the Monon Trail in Carmel, Indiana, one mile south of Main Street Carmel and just minutes from Indianapolis.

We are an out-of-network provider and do not bill insurance directly. However, most insurance plans offer out-of-network coverage, and many clients receive significant reimbursement for our services. We recommend contacting your insurance provider before your first appointment to understand your out-of-network benefits.

If you’d like assistance, we’re happy to call your insurance company on your behalf to help clarify the process.

If you’ve been provided with any pre-assessment forms, please complete them beforehand.

You’re also welcome to bring drinks and snacks to your testing appointment to keep yourself comfortable during the session.

Yes, you are welcome to bring a family member or friend for support during your clinical interview. They can provide valuable input, especially during child or adolescent assessments. However, please be aware that your clinician may ask to speak with you alone for at least part of the session to ensure the most accurate results. Testing sessions are generally conducted one-on-one for the same reason.

We require a payment card on file prior to the clinical interview, and you are responsible for full payment at the time of the clinical interview. We will provide a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.

We offer flexible payment options, including check, credit/debit cards, and HSA/FSA cards.
