Discreet, High-Quality Psychological Assessments for Rancho Santa Fe Clients
Navigating mental, emotional, or learning concerns can be difficult — especially when outward success doesn’t always reflect internal struggle. At Restore Psychology, we provide in-depth psychological assessments for individuals and families in Rancho Santa Fe who are seeking clarity, guidance, and expert insight.
Whether you're looking to better understand a child’s academic challenges, explore emotional patterns, or get a second opinion on a possible diagnosis, our team approaches each evaluation with the care, discretion, and expertise you’d expect.
The Value of a Psychological Evaluation
Psychological assessments are a powerful tool for answering complex questions about behavior, performance, and emotional well-being. Through one-on-one conversations, targeted testing, and careful interpretation, we help clients uncover the root of their challenges and identify a path forward.
Our approach is both thorough and thoughtful — designed to equip you with real knowledge, not just technical data.
Common Assessment Areas
We work with a variety of presenting concerns, including:
Attention-related issues like ADHD or executive functioning concerns
Academic struggles including reading, writing, or math difficulties
Emotional and behavioral challenges such as mood swings, anxiety, or social withdrawal
Dual-diagnosis questions, particularly when symptoms overlap or change over time
Faith-informed evaluation available upon request, honoring spiritual values when desired
All assessments are personalized to each individual and lead to specific, practical recommendations — whether for school, home, therapy, or beyond.

Children or teens attending competitive schools and experiencing academic pressure
