While not an exhaustive list, below are some of the more frequently requested services that Association for Multicultural Health, LLC can provide:
Evaluation: Evaluation is an important part of
the picture since it is during this process that the psychologist assesses the
client’s / patient’s functioning and concerns to determine whether it is likely
that there is a psychological problem or disorder. This typically occurs prior
to establishing a treatment plan (except for example when the diagnostic work
has been done by another practitioner). Note as well that most insurance
companies require a psychological diagnosis before they will reimburse services.
Individual Psychotherapy: Individual
psychotherapy can take a number of different forms. Regardless of the theory
behind each type, individual psychotherapy strives to help the individual
identify and explore their concerns and problems and develop strategies for
overcoming them.
Family Therapy: This specialized form of
psychotherapy strives to work with the family as a system or unit. Family
treatment typically involves meeting with the entire family or various members
of the family together (for example, sessions with parents or siblings). Blended
and non-traditional families as well as traditional families may benefit from
family therapy. In addition, family therapy is often recommended for families
with children or teens who have diagnosed psychological problems.
Couples Therapy: For many adults, a stable and
loving relationship with a life partner is important to health and happiness.
Couples therapy (also known as marriage or marital counseling) works with
couples who are experiencing relationship problems that are getting in the way
of a healthy functioning relationship. In couples therapy, the focus is on the
relationship rather than any one individual. However, some issues in a
relationship stem from individual issues, and these are addressed as well within
the context of the relationship.
Stress Management: Stress is one of the most
common issues that negatively affect health and quality of life. It can be
characterized by worry, racing thoughts, fear, depression and anxiety. Stress
can cause insomnia, headaches, irritability, lack of patience, gastrointestinal
problems and a range of other physical problems. Health Service Psychologists
can help with stress management without drugs or in combination with medication
through a variety of techniques including relaxation skills and
psychotherapy.
Psychological Testing: Psychological testing is a
particular part of psychological assessment and diagnosis. It may be the sole
service provided or it may be part of a process that includes diagnosis and
treatment. Psychologists are trained in administering, and interpreting
psychological tests for a wide range of issues.
