What to expect

From your first questions to a possible care plan.

When an evaluation may help

Attention, worry, low mood, sleep changes, or difficulty keeping up with daily life can have overlapping causes. You can describe what is happening without knowing which label fits. An evaluation can help clarify whether care here or another service may be appropriate.

Before the appointment

Consider noting when your concerns began, what has changed, how they affect work, school, relationships, or daily tasks, and any questions you want answered. Be ready to discuss past care, health history, and current medicines. You can check insurance and payment information and confirm the visit format before scheduling.

During the conversation

Niesha may ask about symptoms, timing, past treatment, health and medication history, and what you hope will improve. The discussion depends on your situation. An evaluation is a clinical conversation; this page does not promise a fixed checklist, test, or same-day conclusion.

After reviewing the picture

Possible next steps may include education, follow-up, psychotherapy when appropriate, medication management when appropriate, or referral for another service. A visit does not guarantee a diagnosis, prescription, or third-party document.

Choose the right question

Looking for a specific kind of evaluation?

For adult attention concerns, read about psychiatric ADHD assessment. House of Haven describes a psychiatric clinical evaluation, not formal psychological or neuropsychological testing. If you need a specific test or report, call the office before booking to clarify your needs.

FMLA and disability documentation services are for established House of Haven patients only. Starting ordinary care does not guarantee future paperwork. Review the FMLA and disability service boundaries.

Common questions

How should I prepare for a psychiatric evaluation?

Think about what has changed, when you first noticed it, how it affects daily life, any past care, current medicines, and what you hope to discuss. Bring questions and information you want Niesha to consider. Confirm your appointment format, coverage, and cost before the visit.

Is an evaluation the same as psychotherapy or psychological testing?

A psychiatric evaluation focuses on understanding concerns and discussing care options. Psychotherapy is a treatment service that may be considered after an initial meeting. This page does not offer or promise formal psychological or neuropsychological testing; call before booking if you need a specific test or report.

Will I receive a diagnosis or prescription?

Neither is guaranteed. Next steps depend on the information gathered, clinical judgment, and whether House of Haven is an appropriate fit.

Can I schedule from outside Lenexa?

The office is in Lenexa, and eligible Missouri residents may ask about in-person visits there. Telehealth is unavailable while physically in Missouri; eligible Kansas residents physically in Kansas can ask whether video care fits their visit.
