MENTAL HEALTH / SUBSTANCE ABUSE ASSESSMENT
Clients
I provide substance abuse assessments in my office or on-site for clients refferred by the court or attorneys. This comprehensive assessment involves a bio-psycho-social history, relevant medical history, and in the case of substance abuse issues, the use of the Substance Abuse Subtle Symptom Inventory(SASSI). The outcome is a prepared document with an overview of the findings, conclusions and recommendations based on inventory scores and collateral information.
