Through a number of tests and information gathered from multiple informants (e.g., parents and teachers), social/emotional testing at FamilyFirst can help you better understand your child. Goals of social/emotional testing are to provide:
1) Diagnostic clarity surrounding your child’s struggles (e.g., depression, anxiety, adjustment disorder, pervasive developmental disorders, etc.).
2) A detailed understanding of your child’s view of self and others. Specifically, testing can provide information about your child’s emotion regulation, ability to relate to others, self-esteem and self-image, coping skills, stress tolerance, and patterns of thinking.
