At Wholesome Psychology, we offer comprehensive psychological assessment services designed to provide clarity and insight into the challenges that entrepreneurs may face. Whether you are managing stress, making key decisions, or striving for personal growth, understanding your psychological and emotional landscape can be a powerful tool for success.
Why Psychological Assessments Matter for Entrepreneurs
Psychological assessments are not only for individuals facing mental health challenges; they can also serve as a proactive step to enhance your leadership skills, improve work-life balance, and boost your overall productivity. At Wholesome Psychology, we use over 350 clinical and non-clinical tests to assess a range of factors, from behavioral tendencies and personality traits to cognitive abilities and emotional resilience. We work with a diverse network of professionals, including physicians, lawyers, government agencies, and business leaders, to ensure that our assessments are comprehensive and tailored to your needs.
Types of Psychological Assessments We Offer
Clinical Psychological Assessments
Entrepreneurs often experience high levels of stress and pressure, which can sometimes lead to psychological or emotional challenges. Our clinical assessments help identify conditions such as:
- Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
- Anxiety Disorders
- Depression
- Bipolar Disorder
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
- Personality Disorders (e.g., Borderline, Antisocial, Histrionic)
Understanding the nature and severity of any psychological or behavioral issues can provide you with actionable insights and a clear path forward, helping you manage your mental health and maintain your business leadership capacity.
Specialized Assessments for Personal and Professional Development
In addition to general psychological evaluations, we offer assessments in several specialized areas:
- Psycho-educational Assessments: For evaluating learning styles, cognitive abilities, and academic performance.
- Developmental Disabilities: Including assessments for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other conditions that may affect daily functioning.
- Substance and Alcohol Dependency: Assessments to address substance use challenges and their impact on personal and professional life.

Through a thorough assessment, we can work together to create a plan that supports your reintegration into the workplace, helping you regain confidence and continue your entrepreneurial journey.
