David was incredibly great. Most people would feel very closed out and possibly shy as a client.

I called so many other counseling office first, either no one answer the call or no confirmed days for class, with Braden, right away, walk me through the process, fees and needed information, able to set up appointment next day to do the testing and schedule me the class right way. very helpful, not like some other place asked me to fill out so many medical forms although just 10 hours DUI Risk Education.I am really happy with them, they are also not charge as much as other company.

I see Amanda Cimaglia and she is by far the most compassionate, respecting and caring counselor I've had. With all the craziness I'm going through she really keeps me grounded. Always listens to me and never ever rushes me but gives me time for her positive feedback.I've always had trouble trusting someone with my issues because I'd find out that the counselor did not go according to her perfession but listen to others to get something out of me. I never had once had that once with Amanda Cimaglia and she let's me work through things I need to at my own pace. And for that I thank her 😊 . She has my mental health at her best interest. Wish there was more counselors out there like her so others can have a safe spot to speak without judgment like I do.From the very bottom of my heart, thank you Amanada Cimaglia and Braden Counseling for having her on board. I'm sure all your staff and team members are just as compassionate ❤️

Child Psychological Evaluation
As adults, we have past experiences to help guide us through; with a child it is very different. They might be cast into situations beyond their control and are having difficulties making sense of all that is going on around them. Children are supposed to be happy and free but are often fearful. Some of these fears are rational, while others might be, or at least seem, irrational. The professional psychiatric services we provide at our Bartlett location will help to uncover what is going on in the life and mind of a child.
If a child is having difficulties in school, the automatic response most people have is often that he/she is just not trying hard enough. However, there might be underlying factors, such as parental divorce, vision problems, or bullying that can undermine a child’s life.
Our counselors at Braden Counseling Center will work to uncover what is going on in a child’s mind and help them to work through it. A psychiatric evaluation is just the beginning to uncovering all that is going on in a child’s life. If you feel your child would benefit from a psychiatric evaluation, contact us today. A psychological evaluation is not the end of a journey for children in Bartlett, but it can be the beginning of a road to recovery.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner]
The Factors of a Psychiatric Evaluation
When you come to our Bartlett office, you will see a psychiatric evaluation is broken down into these components:
- The Therapist
- The Client
- The Psychiatric Provider
- Trust
You must have these four components to make progress. The therapist must know their client completely in order to lead them to a successful outcome. The client must be open and truthful about their life. The more honest and open the communication, the more opportunity there is for lasting change.
The psychiatric provider must know which medication, if any, to prescribe to help meet the challenges for their client. Finally, and most crucially, there must be mutual trust. The relationship between the therapist and the client is unique. It is a partnership that will take time to come to a successful conclusion.
Begin Your Path to Recovery Today
Your psychological assessment can start today. No matter the reason you or a loved one might feel the need for psychiatric services, please know there is no shame in seeking help. Avoid common misconceptions about psychiatry and what it is for. The best way to learn more about psychiatric services is to get in touch. We understand that life is very different from what you see in popular media. We can stop any assumptions that would lead you in the wrong directions.
There are skills you can learn to manage your life more effectively. At Braden Counseling Center, our experienced staff will offer these to you. Our comprehensive psychiatric services are here to provide you with better mental health. It all begins with a free consultation.
Our outpatient behavioral health programs and services are geared for getting results. We have helped hundreds of clients see their way to a new tomorrow, and we are here to do that for you as well. If you are looking for practical, thoughtful help for you or a loved one, we urge you to get in touch with one of the five locations of Braden Counseling Center.
While our location in Bartlett might be the closest to you, we also have offices in Elgin, Rochelle, Oregon, and Sycamore. Our staff has the skills and experience to properly evaluate difficult situations and transform the lives of our patients. Contact us today for more information about our psychiatric services.
