WHOLE STEP PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES INC

Whole Step Psychological Services Inc. specializes in providing independent medical consultant services focused on the evaluation and review of disability claim case files for federal agencies. Their core expertise lies in conducting rigorous clinical assessments of psychiatric and psychological documentation within Social Security Administration disability programs, ensuring adherence to federal disability determination standards. The contractor delivers objective, evidence-based medical opinions that support adjudication decisions, leveraging deep knowledge of mental health diagnostics, DSM criteria, and SSA’s Listing of Impairments. Their differentiation stems from consistent, high-volume engagement in complex case reviews requiring nuanced interpretation of longitudinal treatment records, functional capacity evaluations, and neuropsychological testing results. The company maintains a sustained, primary relationship with the Social Security Administration, consistently supporting its Regional Disability Determination Services through blanket purchase agreements in Region 9. Their work directly enables the agency’s mission by ensuring timely, accurate, and compliant medical decision-making across a high caseload of Supplemental Security Income and Social Security Disability Insurance claims. Their primary NAICS code, 621112, reflects their operational focus as a mental health specialist practice delivering contracted clinical consulting services—not direct patient care, but authoritative medical review within federal administrative systems. This positions them uniquely in the government contracting space as a provider of specialized psychiatric and psychological expertise tailored to public benefits adjudication. As a Women-Owned Small Business and Woman-Owned Business certified firm based in Albany, California, Whole Step Psychological Services Inc. brings a mission-aligned, compliance-driven approach to federal healthcare contracting. Their geographic presence in the San Francisco Bay Area supports regional service delivery for the SSA’s Region 9 operations, reinforcing their role as a trusted, locally embedded clinical resource within the federal disability infrastructure.
