SCREENING TOOLS & MEASURES WE MAY USE

(All within the scope of a licensed clinician, no psychological or neuropsychological testing)

We may incorporate validated symptom-screening tools such as:

  • Trauma symptom inventories
  • Anxiety, depression, and PTSD screening measures
  • Stress, adjustment, and functioning scales
  • Risk and safety screeners
  • Child behavioral and trauma-impact checklists
  • Substance use screening tools

These tools support clinical findings and strengthen the legal narrative, but do not constitute psychometric or diagnostic psychological testing outside the clinician’s scope.

OUR PROCESS

We prioritize compassion, clinical accuracy, and efficiency:

  1. Attorney or client schedules a consultation
  2. Document and background review
  3. Clinical interview(s) via secure telehealth 
  4. Optional collateral interviews
  5. Symptom-screening tools as appropriate
  6. Comprehensive written report delivered to the attorney

Fast turnaround options are available upon request.
