Types of Assessments

STEP 1: Pre-Exploration
To start, you will complete a self-report questionnaire to aid in the assessment process. I use the SRS-2 (Social Responsiveness Scale) & the SPM-2 (Sensory Processing Measure).STEP 2: Collaborative Exploration
Next, we will meet so we can learn more about you & your history & what is going on currently in your life. We will use the guided-exploration tool known as the MIDGAS-2 to gather information, but this will be very relaxed & conversational. It’s preferred that this be a 90 minute session. We may or may not need a follow-up session given how far we get in the 1st exploration.STEP 3: Clarifications & Identification
Lastly, after a few weeks, we will re-connect to clarify information & then share the results of the assessment. We will provide a letter of confirmation & a short report covering the entire process. -
