Clinician-to-Clinician Collaborative Assessment
This unique modality is a collaborative, feedback-driven testing process conducted by me, designed to help you understand your client more clearly and move the work forward. This isn’t just a battery—it’s a conversation across sessions, focused on meaning, precision, and therapeutic relevance.
What This Assessment Offers
This is not traditional evaluation for diagnosis.
It is consultative assessment designed to clarify treatment planning, deepen formulation, and offer insight for both clinician and client.
It is ideal for:
-
Clients who are stuck or hard to engage
-
Cases where diagnostic ambiguity or masking is present
-
Complex presentations with overlapping symptoms (e.g., ADHD, trauma, identity issues)
-
Clients whose inner world feels inaccessible, despite adequate rapport
Initial Planning Session
You and I meet to define the assessment’s goals, identify the key clinical questions, and co-design a tailored approach. This ensures the work is focused, useful, and specific to your treatment process.
Four-Session Assessment Protocol
I meet with the client over a structured sequence of sessions. Tools are selected based on need—often including measures like the NEO, PAI, CIIS, Ravens, WAIS subtests, or projective and symbolic methods. All sessions are collaborative, exploratory, and oriented toward meaning.
Feedback & Integration
You receive a written clinical summary with diagnostic impressions, psychodynamic formulation, and treatment recommendations. We meet to review the results and explore how they integrate with your existing work. Optional joint feedback sessions with the client are also available.
What You’ll Walk Away With
-
Clear answers to specific clinical questions
-
A psychodynamically informed diagnostic summary
-
Written recommendations for immediate use in treatment
-
Deeper insight into the client’s experience and personality structure
-
Optional client-facing insights that support buy-in and therapeutic movement
Who It’s For
This service is designed for licensed clinicians or those under supervision who are actively treating the client in therapy.
