Psychological Evaluations
Dyer Psychology offers comprehensive psychological evaluations for adults — including diagnostic assessments, ADHD and cognitive evaluations, personality assessment, and disability evaluations for veterans and civilians. Evaluations are thorough, clinically substantive, and written for both the patient and any referring provider.
Dr. Dyer conducts evaluations in person in Houston and via telehealth where clinically appropriate. Reports are typically completed within one to two weeks of the final session and include clear diagnostic impressions and actionable recommendations.
If you have been referred for an evaluation, or are seeking one on your own, a brief phone consultation is the right starting point.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of evaluations do you offer?
Dyer Psychology offers several types of psychological evaluations: ADHD and cognitive assessments, personality evaluation, diagnostic clarification for complex or unclear presentations, and disability evaluations for veterans and civilians — including Social Security, workers’ compensation, federal employee, and fitness-for-duty evaluations.
Who typically seeks a psychological evaluation?
Adults who are referred by a physician, psychiatrist, or attorney — as well as those who seek an evaluation on their own. Common reasons include suspected ADHD, diagnostic uncertainty, a need for objective psychological data before a major medical or legal decision, or a disability claim requiring formal documentation.
What does the evaluation process involve?
Most evaluations involve a clinical interview, a review of relevant records, and a battery of standardized psychological tests. The specific tools used depend on the referral question and the scope of the evaluation. The process typically spans one to two sessions, with a written report to follow.
How long does it take to receive the report?
Reports are typically completed within one to two weeks of the final evaluation session. The report includes diagnostic impressions, relevant clinical history, test findings, and specific recommendations for the patient and any referring provider.
Are evaluation results confidential?
Yes. All information gathered during the evaluation is confidential. Results are shared only with you and, with your written consent, with any referring provider or third party — such as an attorney, employer, or government agency where applicable.
Do you conduct disability evaluations for veterans?
Yes. Dr. Dyer is contracted with Veterans Evaluation Services (VES) and conducts disability benefit questionnaire evaluations for veterans. He is also in the process of expanding to additional VA contractor relationships. If you are a veteran seeking a disability evaluation, contact the office to determine the appropriate referral pathway.
What are the fees for a psychological evaluation?
Evaluation fees vary depending on the type and scope of the evaluation. Fees are discussed during the initial consultation. Dyer Psychology is a private-pay practice — evaluations are not billed through insurance, though a superbill can be provided upon request.
