Psychological Testing


Psychological testing can help:
-
Clarify or confirm diagnoses
-
Provide insight into strengths and areas of growth
-
Inform therapy goals and intervention planning
-
Guide referrals to appropriate services
-
Support requests for school accommodations (e.g., IEP, 504 Plan)
-
Establish a baseline for current functioning
At The Luminous Mind, we view psychological evaluation as more than just a diagnostic tool—it’s an opportunity for insight, clarity, and empowerment. Whether you're seeking answers for yourself, your child, or a loved one, our evaluations are designed to support your unique path with care and intention.
​
We understand that traditional testing models often reflect narrow or pathologizing frameworks. That’s why our approach is grounded in respect, cultural responsiveness, and a decolonized lens. We affirm neurodiversity, honor lived experience, and see every client as an active partner in the process.
When you come to us for an evaluation, you can expect:
-
A clinician who is gender-affirming, neurodiversity-affirming, culturally responsive, and rooted in an anti-oppressive decolonized approach
-
To be treated with the utmost respect and dignity
-
To be seen as the expert in your own experience
-
To have full autonomy over what you share (and what you choose not to)
-
A collaborative process that centers your voice, your values, and your goals
-
We’ve included more details below to help demystify the process—and we’re always happy to answer questions along the way.
