Why Private Pay?

Guided by clinical usefulness, not billing requirements

Health insurance generally reimburses psychological testing when it is medically necessary to diagnose a recognized mental disorder — evaluations for ADHD, autism, dementia, or learning disorders, for example.

The IEA's purpose is fundamentally different. Although DSM diagnoses may be identified when appropriate, the primary goal is not diagnostic classification but a detailed understanding of how you relate, regulate, communicate, and connect.

By offering the assessment exclusively on a private-pay basis, the evaluation can be shaped entirely by what is clinically useful — rather than by the documentation and billing limitations insurance carriers impose.

 A Different Kind of Psychological Evaluation

Understanding yourself beyond a diagnosis

The IEA goes beyond diagnostic labels to provide a comprehensive, scientifically grounded understanding of how you relate to others, regulate emotions, and build meaningful relationships.

Questions This Assessment Answers

  • "Why do my relationships repeatedly become strained or fail?

  • "Why do I become overwhelmed by conflict?

  • "Why do I have difficulty trusting others?

  • "Why do I feel lonely despite having people around me?

  • "Why do I continue to choose unhealthy relationships?

  • "What kind of psychotherapy is likely to help me the most?

These questions sit outside the reach of standard diagnostic evaluations. The IEA was developed specifically to answer them.

 

Assessment Dimensions

A full portrait of how you function in relationships

Rather than asking only "What diagnosis does this person have?", the IEA asks how a person relates, regulates, copes, and connects — what might be called an interpersonal diagnosis.

  • Emotional symptoms, including depression and anxiety

  • Emotion regulation

  • Interpersonal style

  • Attachment patterns

  • Relationship strengths and vulnerabilities

  • Communication style

  • Conflict resolution patterns

  • Social support

  • Functioning in family, work, friendships, and marriage

  • Personal values and relational goals

  • Brief intellectual functioning screening
