Testing Services

Psychological Evaluation with Parenting Component: Consists of a full psychological evaluation combined with parenting measures to assess individual parenting strengths and weaknesses. Recommendations are given to aid the family in moving forward in a healthy manner. 

Visitation and Attachment Evaluation: Includes parental fitness/psychological evaluations on each parental figure, but adds additional observations to assess a child or adolescents comfort in continuing visitation with their parental figure, while also looking at the bond and attachment level between the parental figures and the youth.

Adoption Home Studies: In accordance with Utah State law, individuals pursuing a private adoption may be asked to complete both pre- and post-adoption home studies to assist the Court in approving families for adoption. UFI provides prompt and efficient support to help families successfully navigate this process. Adoption Home Studies are offered at a flat rate of $700.00.

Psychological Evaluation: UFI provides psychological evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults to help them better understand their social and emotional well-being. These evaluations can help clarify diagnoses and guide the best treatment or support plan for each individual person.

Intellectual Assessment: We offer full IQ testing for children (ages 2 ½ and up), adolescents, and adults. Intellectual Assessments are offered at a flat rate of $300 and can be used to screen for cognitive deficits or in those suspected of giftedness.

Learning Disorder Assessment: A learning disorder evaluation is a comprehensive assessment that helps identify why someone may be struggling to gain reading, writing, math, or other learning-related skills. Such evaluations involve both intellectual and academic testing. After the evaluation is completed, a detailed report will be provided explaining strengths, weaknesses, and if applicable, a learning disorder diagnosis (sometimes referred to as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, etc.). Such assessments are offered at a private pay rate of $800.00. We can also check on any available insurance benefits.

Substance Abuse Evaluation: This evaluation includes a detailed interview about substance use and related concerns, along with questions based on the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) guidelines to help figure out the best treatment options for you. The cost for this evaluation is $400 (private pay). We can also check on any available insurance benefits. 

Domestic Violence Evaluation: We offer thorough domestic violence assessments that include self-report forms, a review of any available documents, an interview with the alleged victim, and screening measures that look at anger and aggression risk levels. We also ask that a completed background check be provided before the evaluation, along with any Court or police reports that may be available. The cost for this assessment is $700 (private pay). We can also check on any available insurance benefits.

Mental Health Assessment/Psychiatric Diagnostic Evaluations: These evaluations help provide a clearer picture of a person’s current social, emotional, and psychological well-being. They include screening tools to support the therapist’s assessment and help guide accurate diagnosis and personalized recommendations for treatment and growth. Mental Health Assessments (Psychiatric Diagnostic Evaluations) are offered at a private pay rate of $400. We can also check on any available insurance benefits.

Comprehensive Autism Assessments: UFI personnel are trained in providing comprehensive assessments to assess for symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder. We can provided different levels of assessment, or include screening for Autism Spectrum Disorder within a larger psychological evaluation. This will include the use of multiple measures, incorporating the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2nd Edition (ADOS-2) when indicated.
