01
Getting started with psychological assessments in Tampa is easy. Simply fill out our online form or contact us by phone or email to request an evaluation for yourself, your child, or a family member.
02
Our office will follow up to discuss your concerns and goals. We’ll schedule the right type of assessment, whether it’s for ADHD testing, autism evaluations, learning difficulties, or mental health concerns.
03
During the assessment process, our psychologists use evidence-based testing to provide accurate results. We deliver clear feedback and recommendations.
Sleep and fuel. Aim for rest and a regular meal—fatigue can affect attention and pace.
Bring relevant records. Report cards, IEP/504 plans, previous evaluations, medication lists.
Think about examples. Note when symptoms show up (mornings, tests, social situations, work tasks).
For kids/teens. Explain that it’s about learning how they think and feel—no pass/fail.
Ask anything. We welcome questions about measures, timelines, and how results are used.
Plan next steps. Schedule the feedback appointment when you book testing to keep momentum.
Looking for Psychological Assessments that turn confusion into clarity? Tampa Counseling and Wellness provides comprehensive psychological evaluation and psychological testing services across Tampa.
We translate data into plain-English insights and a step-by-step plan you can use at home, work, and school.
Our licensed clinicians use evidence-based measures (clinical interviews, rating scales, cognitive and achievement tests, behavior checklists) to clarify what’s going on and what to do next. Whether you need ADHD testing, learning disability evaluation, autism assessment, diagnostic clarification for mood/anxiety/PTSD, or pre-surgical psychological evaluation, we’ll guide you from questions to answers—without jargon.
| Assessment Type | What it Answers | Good For |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic Clarification | Is it anxiety, depression, PTSD, or something else—and how severe? | Adults & teens needing clear diagnosis and treatment plan |
| ADHD Assessment | Attention, hyperactivity, and executive-function profile (child, teen, adult) | School/work accommodations; coaching and skills roadmap |
| Psychoeducational Testing | Cognitive & academic testing (reading, writing, math); dyslexia/dysgraphia/dyscalculia | IEP/504 discussions and tutoring targets |
| Autism Assessment | Social-communication, sensory, and behavior profile; differential diagnosis | Children, teens, and adults seeking clarity & supports |
| Neuropsychological Screening | Memory, attention, processing speed, and problem-solving snapshot | Baseline concerns, concussion follow-ups, or cognitive change |
| Pre-Surgical / Specialty Evaluations | Readiness, risks, and supports (e.g., bariatric, pain, implantable devices) | Surgeon/clinic collaboration and tailored coping plan |
A psychological assessment is a structured way to understand symptoms, strengths, and needs. By pairing interviews with standardized measures, we can separate similar-looking issues (e.g., anxiety vs. ADHD, depression vs. burnout) and recommend targeted next steps. You don’t just get scores—you get a clear explanation, practical recommendations, and referrals where helpful.
Consult & intake: your questions, history, goals, and context (home, school, work).
Testing session(s): age-appropriate measures; breaks as needed; parent/teacher input for youth.
Scoring & interpretation: we compare results to normative data and your lived experience.
Feedback session: plain-English findings, Q&A, and a written report you can use.
Action plan: therapy focus, school/work supports, skills training, and community resources.

TESTIMONIALS
Definitely recommend!
Dr. Garcia is the most compassionate person I have ever met. He was always available for me and helped me work through a lot of depression and develop the person I wanted to be. Even today there are things that I remind myself of that he told me that there is no quick fix to undo years of life experience.
