I'm not sure if I would go as far to call Penguindrum psychological, at least compared to NGE and other notable series.

But it is def a mindfuuuuuudge :smileyvery-happy:

iirc i think even tokyo godfathers had a bit wtf in it.
it was pretty tame tho especially for a satoshi kon film, but it still had a bit of wierdness in it in some parts.

I don't like this genre of anime so I tend to shy away from them.
But would Elfen Lied count?

As a psychological test, yes. As in, anyone who watches and thinks Elfen Lied is great is psychologically broken.

Death note is weird. I like it, but it seems to rely on the detective/thriller aspect, & less about mind ####...if u paid attn to the story enuff u could see where it was going. An it relied so much on logic that at times it was more funny than srs.
