Evaluations & Testing in Indiana
Comprehensive Psychological Evaluations
You may be looking for answers — or at least a clearer understanding of what’s going on.
Maybe you’ve noticed patterns that don’t quite make sense, ongoing challenges that haven’t improved, or concerns that keep coming up at home, school, or work. You might be wondering whether something more is going on, or if an evaluation could help bring clarity.
It can feel overwhelming not knowing where to start — or whether you’re asking the right questions.
You’re not alone in that.
At WellHome Psychology, we provide comprehensive, trauma-informed evaluations designed to help you better understand cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning.
Our goal is not just to provide a diagnosis, but to offer meaningful insight, clear direction, and practical recommendations that support next steps in care, education, or daily life.
Comprehensive Evaluations
At WellHome Psychology, we offer structured, evidence-based evaluations designed to provide clarity, diagnostic understanding, and meaningful direction.
Evaluations are conducted by a licensed clinical psychologist and are available for children (ages 3+), adolescents, and adults.
We provide a range of evaluation services, including:
- ADHD evaluations
- Neurodevelopmental and psychological assessments
- Learning and executive functioning evaluations
- Mood, anxiety, and trauma-related assessments
- Parenting evaluations (including court-involved cases)
- Pre-adoptive and adoption readiness evaluations
Depending on the evaluation, the process may include:
- Clinical interviews
- Standardized psychological and cognitive testing
- Behavioral observations
- Review of records (school, medical, or legal when applicable)
- Collateral input from caregivers or providers
- Detailed written reports with recommendations
- Feedback sessions to review results and next steps
All evaluations are self-pay and reflect the time and expertise required for thorough assessment, interpretation, and report writing. Superbill documentation is available for clients seeking possible out-of-network reimbursement.
Our evaluation process is tiered, meaning the scope of testing is matched to your specific needs — from focused diagnostic clarification to comprehensive, multi-domain assessments.
Our goal is not just to provide a diagnosis, but to offer clear answers, practical recommendations, and a path forward. We take a thoughtful, trauma-informed approach to ensure evaluations are not only accurate, but respectful of the individual’s full experience.
Common outcomes of evaluations

Feeling disconnected or not like yourself
→ Feeling uncertain about what’s really going on

Is an evaluation right for you?
An evaluation may be a good fit if you:
- Are looking for clear answers or diagnostic clarity
- Have ongoing concerns about attention, learning, behavior, or emotional functioning
- Notice patterns that haven’t improved with typical strategies or support
- Are unsure how to move forward with treatment or support
- Need documentation for school, work, or accommodations
- Want a better understanding of how trauma, stress, or other factors may be impacting functioning
- Are navigating complex or overlapping concerns (e.g., ADHD, anxiety, trauma, learning differences)
- Are seeking a more comprehensive understanding before starting or continuing therapy
An evaluation may not be the best fit if you:
- Are primarily seeking ongoing therapy without a need for assessment
- Are looking for a quick or same-day diagnosis
- Are not ready to engage in a structured, multi-step evaluation process
- Are in need of immediate or crisis-based support
Additional situations where evaluations may be helpful:
- Parents concerned about their child’s development, behavior, or school performance
- Adults questioning ADHD, executive functioning, or long-standing patterns
- Families involved in parenting or custody-related evaluations
- Individuals or couples completing adoption readiness evaluations
- Professionals or students needing formal documentation for accommodations

The FAQs
Evaluations can feel like a big step — and it’s normal to have questions about the process, cost, timelines, and what to expect. Below are answers to some of the most common questions. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, contact us with your question at [email protected].
Getting Started
You don’t have to figure that out on your own. We’ll guide you toward the appropriate evaluation type and tier based on your concerns, goals, and the level of detail needed.
Referrals may come from a physician, psychiatrist, therapist, school, or other professional. However, a referral is not required — many clients choose to self-refer when seeking clarity or diagnostic insight. If you are a provider and would like to refer someone, you can find our referral form here.
We provide evaluations for children (ages 3+), adolescents, and adults.
That’s okay. We can help you determine whether an evaluation is the right next step or if another service may be a better fit.
Types of Evaluations
We offer ADHD evaluations, comprehensive psychological and neurodevelopmental assessments, parenting evaluations (including court-involved), and pre-adoptive/adoption readiness evaluations.
A fitness for duty evaluation is a structured assessment used to determine whether an individual can safely and effectively perform their job responsibilities, often in safety-sensitive roles.
Parenting evaluations assess parenting strengths, stressors, and parent-child dynamics. They may be used for treatment planning, family support, or court-related purposes.
We offer both non-forensic and court-involved parenting evaluations, including consultation-level, comprehensive, and court-related assessments with structured documentation and reporting.
Adoption readiness evaluations are strengths-based assessments used to determine emotional preparedness, stability, and readiness for adoption. These are often required by agencies or courts.
Process & What to Expect
Most evaluations are completed within approximately 2–6 weeks, depending on the type of evaluation and scheduling.
Yes. All evaluations include a written report with findings, diagnostic impressions (when appropriate), and recommendations.
No. Evaluations require multiple steps and careful interpretation to ensure accuracy and meaningful results.
Fees & Insurance
Evaluations are self-pay. We provide superbills for possible out-of-network reimbursement depending on your insurance plan.
Evaluations involve significant time beyond appointments, including testing, scoring, interpretation, and detailed report writing.
Coordination & Use of Results
Yes. With your consent, results can be shared to support accommodations, treatment planning, or coordinated care.
No. Evaluations are a separate service focused on assessment and recommendations, not ongoing treatment.
Legal & Forensic
In some cases, yes. Court-involved evaluations may include court-ready reports and, when appropriate, testimony. These services follow a structured forensic process and are billed separately. We do not serve in dual roles (therapy and forensic evaluation for the same case).
