Psychological Assessments

At Catholic Charities’ Family Services, we offer psychological assessments for children, adolescents, and adults within the Diocese of Arlington.  While we are a part of Catholic Charities, we offer services to anyone in need.  The cost for a psychological assessment is based on a sliding scale which can make receiving an assessment more affordable.  We offer assessments for diagnosis of mental health concerns as well as vocational assessments for religious orders.

To receive assessment services, call our Assessment Intake line at 1-540-388-3960
