Personal Statement

I believe that an evaluation should provide in-depth understanding of the entire person. The assessment process is designed to clarify the diagnostic picture, which is the basis of effective treatment. But the ultimate purpose of the evaluation is to promote deeper self-understanding and self-acceptance, and empower each person to achieve his or her true potential.
