A member asked:

Hello doctors. i have a question: is it possible to get a psychological assessment done by a professional other than a physician?

Yes: If looking for a psychological assessment, consider consulting a psychologist. Depending on the reason for evaluation a variety of tools and measures can be used to provide an overall picture of one's psychological functioning. If insomnia (noted poor sleep) is a concern consider seeking a psychologist familiar with evaluating the condition and use of cognitive behavioral treatment of insomnia.

You have to get: it done by a psychologist not a physician. Psychological tests are only administered by psychologists. Good luck. Ask your insurance company for some referrals.
