A psychiatric evaluation is a detailed mental health assessment that explores your symptoms, history, and goals so we can make an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. At Bella Vida TMS, our providers take time to listen, review your medications and medical background, and collaborate with you to create a personalized plan, which may include therapy, medication, TMS, ketamine, or other supports.
Psychiatric Evaluations
Overview:
A psychiatric evaluation is a structured, in-depth conversation designed to understand what you’re experiencing emotionally, mentally, and physically. During this visit, your provider asks about your mood, sleep, energy, focus, medical history, medications, substance use, and any past treatment. They also explore your strengths, stressors, support system, and goals. The purpose isn’t to “judge” you, but to arrive at a clear diagnosis and understand how your symptoms are affecting your daily life, relationships, and work or school.
At Bella Vida TMS in Phoenix, Glendale, and Gilbert, our psychiatric evaluations are calm, compassionate, and collaborative. We know sharing your story can feel vulnerable, so we move at your pace and explain what we’re looking for and why. Your provider reviews past records when available, screens for conditions such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, and bipolar disorder, and considers both medication and non-medication options. Together, you’ll create a personalized plan that may include talk therapy, medication management, TMS, ketamine or Spravato, and lifestyle supports—always tailored to your needs and comfort level.
