Personality Evaluations:  Personality evaluations are often used in association with therapy to assist in making a diagnosis or identifying issues which need to be addressed.  Personality evaluations range from simple screening questionnaires to more intense testing designed to identify underlying or unconscious factors which may be harming a person’s emotional well being.  Evaluations are often used to identify specific problem areas such as substance abuse or anger problems.  Parenting studies may be used to facilitate adoptions.
