Assessment & Diagnostic Testing
Dr. Crenshaw offers focused psychological assessment for adults seeking greater diagnostic clarity around concerns such as anxiety, OCD, PTSD, depression, eating-related concerns, and related psychological conditions.
Testing is offered selectively and begins with a brief screening step to determine whether a full assessment is clinically appropriate.
