Evaluation & Diagnosis
We offer comprehensive psychiatric evaluations for both children and adults, tailored to each individual's unique needs. Our assessments include in-depth clinical interviews, neurocognitive evaluations, and autism evaluations, supported by quantitative tools such as the Continuous Performance Test (CPT) and quantitative EEG (QEEG). We take a thorough, evidence-based approach to understanding each patient's history, symptoms, and strengths — ensuring an accurate diagnosis that serves as the foundation for effective, personalized care.
Psychiatric Evaluation Measures
QEEG (Quantitative EEG)
A non-invasive brain mapping tool that records and analyzes electrical activity in the brain. QEEG helps identify neurological patterns linked to conditions such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, and autism, providing objective data to guide personalized treatment planning.
CCPT (Continuous Performance Test)
A computerized assessment that measures attention, impulse control, and sustained focus over time. The CCPT is particularly valuable in evaluating ADHD and other attention-related disorders across both children and adults, offering precise, quantifiable results to complement clinical observation.
Structured Clinical Interview
A systematic, evidence-based interview process used to gather a comprehensive picture of a patient's psychiatric history, symptoms, and functioning. This foundational tool ensures no detail is overlooked and forms the backbone of an accurate, individualized diagnosis.
Neurocognitive & Developmental Assessment
A detailed evaluation of cognitive functioning, developmental milestones, and behavioral patterns. Especially important for patients with autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disabilities, or genetic and neurological conditions, this assessment informs both diagnosis and long-term care planning.
Askari Methodology
A precise diagnosis is the cornerstone of effective psychiatric care. Without a thorough understanding of the biological, cognitive, and behavioral factors at play, treatment can become a process of guesswork rather than targeted, meaningful intervention. At Askari Psychiatry, we believe every patient deserves answers — not just a label, but a clear, comprehensive picture of how their mind works and what it needs to thrive. By combining clinical expertise with objective, quantitative tools, Dr. Askari ensures that each evaluation lays the strongest possible foundation for lasting progress and well-being.
You deserve care that truly understands you. Join Askari Psychiatry today.
