ABOUT DR. BRAMS
Everyone deserves the chance to live a happy, fulfilling life—free from the burdens of mental and emotional distress.
Psychological Testing & Mental Health Services
Dr. Brams offers comprehensive psychological testing to assess a wide range of mental health concerns and cognitive functions. These evaluations help clarify diagnoses, guide treatment planning, and provide valuable insights into emotional, behavioral, and intellectual functioning. Common areas of assessment include ADHD, learning disabilities, mood disorders, personality structure, cognitive abilities, and grief-related concerns.
He also provides specialized bereavement and grief assessments to differentiate between normal grief and more complex emotional responses, such as prolonged or complicated grief, depression, or trauma-related conditions. Additionally, Dr. Brams conducts psychological evaluations for individuals involved in personal injury cases—such as motor vehicle accidents, workplace injuries, and other traumatic events—to assess the emotional and psychological impact of their injuries.
In addition, Dr. Brams conducts pre-bariatric surgery psychological evaluations, a required component of the surgical process. These assessments evaluate emotional readiness, identify potential psychological risk factors, and offer recommendations to support long-term success following weight-loss surgery.
Beyond assessment services, Dr. Brams specializes in the treatment of various mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction. He utilizes evidence-based therapies to help clients develop effective coping strategies, build resilience, and overcome life’s challenges.
