Assessments

The ability to specifically identify a mental health challenge can offer tremendous relief. Assessments lead to a greater understanding of how to cope and to take advantage of your strengths. Knowing the particular reason for your difficulties helps to formulate a treatment plan and assists efforts at home, work and school, as the case may be.
