Comprehensive forensic assessments built on clinical expertise

Delivering clear and thorough report development, from document review to case formulation, freeing clinicians and family law attorneys to efficiently and confidently serve more clients.

Forensic assessment and evaluation is complex, both due to the sensitive subject matter and the many different sources of data required to conduct comprehensive, accurate, and objective evaluations. The Association of Family and Conciliation Courts suggests that a team approach to conducting these complex evaluations is appropriate (AFCC, 2006).

About Grounded Insights

I partner with evaluators to offer grounded, clinical insights and report-writing support so providers can deliver clear and thorough forensic assessments without time-consuming material review and drafting.

I see this as a true collaboration. Together we’ll identify your needs and the scope of our work. I’ll review and synthesize materials, conferring with you as appropriate, and submit a draft that combines your views about cases with best practices and the law, making it easier for you to put the report in final form.
