Using standardized assessments, clinical interviews, and record reviews, it examines social, cognitive, and behavioral functioning, as well as how ASD traits may relate to legal issues such as competency, criminal responsibility, disability claims, or family court matters. This assessment provides objective findings to support legal decisions and ensure appropriate accommodations or interventions.

Using clinical interviews, cognitive and psychological testing, and record reviews, the assessment examines intellectual functioning, mental health status, and decision-making capacity. It provides objective findings to determine whether the individual meets legal standards for competency and may inform court rulings, guardianship decisions, or treatment recommendations.

Forensic Assessment for PTSD is a structured evaluation conducted to determine the presence and impact of post-traumatic stress disorder in legal or clinical settings. This assessment involves psychological testing, clinical interviews, and a detailed review of medical, occupational, and legal records to assess the severity of symptoms and their connection to a specific traumatic event. It examines how PTSD affects an individual’s cognitive, emotional, and functional abilities, particularly in relation to legal claims such as disability benefits, personal injury cases, or criminal responsibility. The assessment provides objective findings to support legal proceedings, ensuring accurate diagnosis, credibility, and appropriate recommendations for treatment or compensation.

Substance Abuse Assessment involves a comprehensive evaluation through standardized assessments and a structured interview to explore an individual’s substance use patterns, behaviors, and overall well-being. It includes questions about the types and frequency of substance use, its impact on daily life, relationships, and health, as well as any past attempts to quit. The assessment and interview also examine physical, mental, and emotional factors contributing to substance use, helping to identify signs of addiction and guide appropriate support or treatment options.
