For employers, HR teams, & organizational leaders

Workplace & Employer Partnerships for Psychological Consultation & Evaluations

Loudoun Psychological Services partners with employers to support emotionally healthy, sustainable workplaces through thoughtful evaluation, consultation, and education.

Supporting organizations in Loudoun County and the greater Northern Virginia region.

Supporting the people who keep your organization running

Workplaces function best when people have the support they need to manage stress, adapt to change, and participate fully in their roles. We collaborate with employers in ways that respect employee privacy, organizational culture, and legal/HR frameworks.

Corporate & Office-Based Employers

Professional, confidential services to support employees in knowledge-based, administrative, and hybrid work settings dealing with complex demands and change.

Small Businesses & Local Employers

Tailored partnership for small and mid-sized employers who know their teams well and want grounded, realistic options to support staff wellbeing and performance.

Public Sector & Nonprofit Organizations

Collaboration with government agencies and nonprofits whose staff support the community— often in high-responsibility, high-impact roles.

Healthcare & Helping Professions

Support for organizations whose employees care for others—addressing stress, compassion fatigue, and the emotional demands of helping roles.

Workplace-focused psychological services

Our role is not to manage employees or make employment decisions. Instead, we provide psychological expertise that employers can consider—alongside HR, legal, and supervisory input—when they are navigating complex situations involving mental health or functioning at work.

Work-Related Psychological Evaluations

Evaluations that focus on how mental health and life circumstances may be affecting work functioning, decision-making, and stamina.

  • Assessment of attention, mood, and stress-related concerns
  • Consideration of role expectations and work environment
  • Recommendations to support functioning where appropriate

Consultation with HR & Leadership

Conversations that help HR and leaders understand psychological considerations while staying within their policies and legal frameworks.

  • Thoughtful discussion of patterns and concerns
  • Support in thinking through options and boundaries
  • Education on mental health in workplace contexts

Accommodation-Related Recommendations

When appropriate, we may offer clinical recommendations that employers can consider as they make their own decisions about accommodations and job adjustments.

  • Focus on specific functional limitations and strengths
  • Suggestions that respect role requirements
  • Awareness of potential impacts on teams and workflow

Return-to-Work & Role Transition Support

Psychological input that can be one part of broader return-to-work planning after leaves of absence or significant life changes.

  • Attention to gradual transitions and realistic expectations
  • Consideration of work stressors and support structures
  • Collaboration with other providers when appropriate

Workshops & Staff Education

Educational offerings that fit within your culture and existing wellbeing efforts, without overpromising or pathologizing normal human stress.

  • Education on stress, burnout, and resilience
  • Understanding mental health warning signs
  • Supporting colleagues while maintaining boundaries

Coordination with Existing Resources

We can coordinate with EAPs, internal wellbeing initiatives, and community providers to complement—not duplicate—what you already offer.

  • Clarifying roles between internal and external supports
  • Helping staff navigate available resources
  • Emphasis on realistic, sustainable approaches

Ethical, boundaries-conscious partnership

We do not make employment decisions and do not function as your legal or HR advisors. Instead, we offer psychological information and recommendations that employers may consider within their own policies, legal requirements, and professional judgment. Our clinicians follow professional ethics and confidentiality standards and clearly communicate the limits of our role.

A clear process for employers and employees

Partnerships work best when everyone knows what to expect. We work with you to create consistent, transparent pathways for referral, communication, and follow-up.

Step 1

Partnership planning

We speak with HR and leadership to understand your culture, policies, and goals and to clarify how psychological services can appropriately fit into your existing structures.

Step 2

Referral pathways

Together, we outline when and how employees may be referred or invited to seek services, and how their participation remains voluntary and informed.

Step 3

Evaluation or consultation

Our clinicians complete appropriate interviews, assessments, or consultations, providing feedback to the individual and, when consented and appropriate, to designated workplace contacts.

Step 4

Follow-up & collaboration

We remain available, within agreed-upon boundaries, to clarify recommendations and offer additional consultation about how to apply them in your context.

What employer partners often notice

While every organization is different and outcomes can’t be guaranteed, many partners describe these kinds of benefits after integrating psychological consultation and evaluation into their systems.

Clearer understanding of complex situations

Leaders and HR teams have more context for situations involving mental health, stress, or performance concerns, which can support more thoughtful decision-making.

More targeted supports for employees

When appropriate, recommendations can help guide how, when, and whether to offer certain supports or adjustments, consistent with your policies and resources.

Healthier, more open conversations

Over time, organizations may find it easier to talk about mental health and stress in a grounded, non-alarmist way that reduces stigma while respecting boundaries.

Frequently asked questions

We welcome questions specific to your organization. These responses address some of the most common themes we hear from employers and HR partners.

Our role is to provide psychological information and, when appropriate, recommendations that employers may consider. We do not serve as the decision-maker about employment, nor do we replace your HR, legal, or supervisory processes. Any employment decisions remain the responsibility of the organization.

We follow professional ethical standards and applicable privacy laws. Employees are informed about what information may be shared and with whom. With appropriate written consent, we may share agreed-upon information with designated workplace contacts. Without consent, we only disclose information as required or permitted by law, such as in situations involving safety concerns.

No. Human behavior and workplace systems are complex, and outcomes can’t be guaranteed. Our commitment is to provide high-quality, ethically grounded psychological services that may support better understanding, decision-making, and wellbeing over time.

Yes. Within ethical and legal boundaries, we work with you to shape services—such as referral pathways, communication formats, and training topics—so they fit your culture, policies, and existing wellbeing initiatives.

Let’s explore partnership for your organization

  • Clarify where psychological services may be helpful
