FAQs

What is a psychological assessment for? 

The purpose of assessments is to help individuals develop a better understanding of themselves. A licensed clinician actively facilitates this process through evidence-based approaches and empirically validated assessment tools. Results from a psychological evaluation are useful in developing treatment plans or requesting additional support services for school or work.

I’m not sure what I should be looking for. Which evaluation should I request?

Our approach to evaluations is highly collaborative, with the opportunity to develop personalized testing that is tailored to an individual’s specific concerns. Please contact us (admin-chinese@mindbodygarden.com) for a free phone consultation. Our clinical team welcomes the opportunity to find out more about your concerns, what you might need, and explain our assessment process before you make a decision. 

What happens after the assessment?  

Your clinician will provide a feedback session to discuss findings from the assessment. They will explain the diagnosis (if any), review areas in need of support, and highlight areas of strength. You will also receive a comprehensive report that describes the assessment results in detail and a personalized list of recommendations. You may use this report in communication with your care providers or the school district.

Is the assessment available in Mandarin?

Bilingual Mandarin- and English-speaking clinicians are available. Some standardized tests must be conducted in English, but our Mandarin-speaking clinicians can conduct interviews and help to facilitate the general testing process in Mandarin. We offer ASD diagnostic testing in Mandarin as needed.

Do you offer online psychological assessments?

Yes. Our Assessment Center now offers secure, HIPAA-compliant online psychological assessment services for eligible clients located in California and New York.

Online assessments allow families to access high-quality evaluations from the comfort of their home, while maintaining the same clinical standards, testing validity, and professional oversight as in-person assessments. Eligibility for remote testing depends on the child’s age, referral question, and the specific type of assessment needed. Our clinicians will carefully determine whether online assessment is appropriate on a case-by-case basis.

If you are located in California or New York and would like to explore online assessment options, please contact our team to schedule a consultation. We are happy to offer a screening call and help you determine the most appropriate evaluation format for your child.

How do I make an appointment? 

Please reach out to us via email: admin-chinese@mindbodygarden.com, or call/text us at: ☎️ 650-434-2563

If seeking IQ testing for school applications, scheduling is available via email or through our online self-scheduling system (at the bottom of this page). If the appointment takes place during school hours, we can provide a letter upon request stating the appointment date and time to address school absence for the purpose of the assessment.

How do I pay? 

Credit or debit card payments are accepted on our platform, Simple Practice. Payment information will be requested at the time of scheduling, but your card will be charged only at the completion of the assessment. 

Clients with insurance from Kaiser Permanente require an external referral from Kaiser (for psychological assessment). Please contact your Kaiser clinic for processing. If you do not have the referral, Kaiser will not reimburse your fees. If you have an older referral, we advise you to call the clinic to confirm it is still valid.

Mind and Body Garden Psychology is not currently in-network with other insurance providers for assessment services. Payments are out-of-pocket to be paid directly to our clinic, but we can provide a superbill to help you with seeking reimbursement from insurance providers. If you intend to seek insurance reimbursement, please contact your insurance provider to clarify your insurance benefits/reimbursement for out-of-network services. Insurance companies may sometimes require that you seek pre-authorization. You can use HSA/FSA to pay for the service.
