Gain Clarity and Confidence with Start My Wellness Psychological Testing
Additionally, psychological testing goes beyond diagnosing conditions: it helps reveal personal strengths that, when fostered, can build self-confidence, improve emotional resilience, and provide clarity for building a balanced life.
Following testing, you’ll receive a clear, easy-to-read report summarizing your results, explaining their significance, and offering recommendations for personalized support. If you choose to pursue therapy, your testing results will help inform personalized treatment that addresses your unique needs while promoting your strengths.

From Dr. Bloom’s desk…….
“I have seen an evolution of healthcare over the course of my 30+ years in the field of neuropsychology. Modern healthcare requires much greater attention to access to care and efficiency in the way we provide care to our patients. I am excited to be a part of Start My Wellness because it takes the best of traditional methods of neuropsychology and modernizes them for today’s needs.”
