Collaborative Assessment

The State of the Art of Psychological Assessment: Are you ready to make a deep, lasting change in a minimal but intense amount of time?

If you answered yes, you may be a great candidate for my Collaborative Assessment offering, Based on Therapeutic Assessment principles as developed by Stephen Finn, Ph.D., and members of the Center for Therapeutic Assessment, Collaborative Assessment is a high-powered and deep-diving personal journey into your psyche, infusing the science behind today’s best psychological assessment techniques and tools with the very special collaborative therapeutic alliance you will form with me.

In this short-term intervention, you will:

Identify QUESTIONS you have of yourself that you haven’t yet been able to answer
Utilize assessment measures to IDENTIFY personal areas of importance, strength, liability, and uniqueness
Develop an ALLIANCE with me to collaboratively develop new insights, self-compassion, and understanding of your journey in life so far
Create BREAK-THROUGHS to free yourself of psychological obstacles
Build a new and more empathic life NARRATIVE that bolsters your sense of confidence and self-worth, moving forward.
And finally, ANSWER the questions you developed for yourself at the beginning of this process

Collaborative assessment covers all of the areas of traditional psychological assessments, and can usually serve similar referral concerns. The big difference is that most psychological assessments are designed to convey information to other professionals. Collaborative assessment is explicitly designed, first and foremost, to have a direct therapeutic effect on you.

I currently offer collaborative assessment:

As its own standalone treatment
To clients of other therapists whose treatment has reached a plateau; most clients then continue on with their therapist past the plateau
To couples looking to enhance their relationship
To individuals seeking Health Improvement Consultation
