Posttraumatic Stress Disorder is a specific diagnosis in the broader diagnostic category labeled, Trauma and Stress Related Disorders. There is no single psychological evaluation for PTSD. A psychologist can evaluate you for PTSD. Not every traumatized person develops ongoing (chronic) or even short-term (acute) PTSD. Not everyone with PTSD has been through a dangerous event. Some experiences, like the sudden, unexpected death of a loved one, can also cause PTSD. Symptoms usually begin early, within 3 months of the traumatic incident, but sometimes they begin years afterward. The course of the illness varies. Methods used to assess for PTSD include comprehensive diagnostic interview, use of a standardized PTSD symptom rating scale, administration of psychological test(s) to evaluate cognitive functioning and severity of symptoms and make recommendations for mental health services.
