What is a Psychiatric Evaluation?
A psychiatric evaluation is a diagnostic tool employed by a psychiatrist. It may be used to diagnose problems with memory, thought processes, and behaviors. Diagnoses can include depression, schizophrenia, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and addiction. A psychiatric evaluation aims to:
Include the patient while making decisions about an initial treatment plan
Rule out other physical conditions that might be causing the symptoms
Densify long-term problems that might emerge in the future
Make changes in the treatment if needed, for those who have had a psychiatric evaluation in the past
Confirm the diagnosis of a mental disorder that requires treatment by a psychiatrist
