PCBH clinicians diagnose patients through a clinical interview. Every clinician who bills an insurance company needs to have a diagnosis in order to be reimbursed.
We do not do psychological testing. This kind of testing is used for many purposes such as ruling in or out various diagnoses. A diagnostician will give a patient a battery of assessments and projective tests to measure one’s cognitive ability and overall functioning.
We do not treat anorexia as it is necessary to have a multi-disciplinary team approach typically at a higher level of care than outpatient therapy.
We do not treat children under the age of 12.
We do not provide psychopharmacological services for those under 18.
