I write comprehensive evaluation report drafts that address concerns such as mental health and co-parenting problems and conflict. Reports are written to respond to evaluation questions and orders, including for opinions about the ultimate issues of custody, parenting time, and residency. I incorporate interviews of the parties, psychological assessment (when applicable), home visits and direct observation of parent-child interaction (when applicable), thorough document review, and contacts with collateral sources into evaluation reports.

I draft reports for psychological assessments, Category E and F Guardian Ad Litem reports, parental capacity evaluations, and custody evaluations. I also write parent coordinator responses.

I conduct extensive document review of materials such as court filings, medical or mental health records, school records, client-submitted data, and other supplemental records. I review all data and deliver a list of file names for all submitted material and a summarized review of records that have the most direct bearing upon concerns.

Clinicians and attorneys often engage experts to review the work of other professionals to obtain a second opinion on a case formulation or to provide feedback on draft reports for clarity, coherence, and compliance with evidence-based practices and relevant statutes. My training and knowledge equip me with a unique lens to help evaluators identify strengths and weaknesses in their reports and case narratives.  

I offer strategic consultation for complex cases. I consider individual and comparative analysis of multiple people across dimensions identified by case-specific issues, relevant research, and clinical insights. I provide a summary of these elements and make recommendations to promote the current and future well-being and welfare of individuals, children, and families.
