Pre-Employment Mental Health Evaluation

Some employers require job applicants to complete a psychological evaluation prior to their employment. Upper Bay offers employers and job applicants an evaluation tailored to those needs. Such an evaluation may include completion of a psychological inventory and psychosocial history as well as participation in a clinical interview with a licensed mental health professional. For further information about such an evaluation, please contact the Intake & Assessment Unit at 410-620-7161.
