While our practice does not offer traditional therapy, we specialize in comprehensive diagnostic assessments for adults who are either seeking a clearer understanding of their mental health or who have found traditional therapy ineffective in meeting their needs.
Our evaluation process is designed to get to the root of what’s truly going on—emotionally, cognitively, and behaviorally. Following assessment, you will receive a detailed clinical report that includes a formal diagnosis (if applicable), a personalized treatment plan, and targeted recommendations to guide therapy. This approach helps ensure that your time in treatment is focused, efficient, and grounded in evidence-based practices.


How Our Services Differ

Many adults enter therapy without a clear diagnosis or direction, often leading to months or even years of “talk therapy” without significant progress. Our approach removes the guesswork. Using a structured combination of clinical interviews, psychological and personality testing, and other relevant measures, we provide a complete picture of your functioning.
Every recommendation we provide is backed by empirical data and tailored to your individual history, needs, and goals. You’ll walk away with:
• A definitive understanding of what you're experiencing
• A written treatment plan based on scientific evidence and best practices
• A list of highly qualified therapists in your area with experience in your specific areas of need

What to Expect
• Two appointments: one clinical diagnostic interview and one testing session
• Psychological and personality measures, with additional assessments as needed
• A thorough written report outlining diagnostic findings and a therapy roadmap
• A final feedback session to walk through your results and next steps

If you're interested in proceeding, please reply to confirm and provide a copy of your photo ID and the front and back of your insurance card(s). If you have questions before moving forward, I’d be happy to speak with you directly.

Warmly,

Dr. Brotz
