treatment for . . ..
primary role was director - pimar y lead on all evals done by doctoral students
few own patients herself and
children in system - multiple diagnosis - evals to determine what going on with them
she has done work in this county and Pinella county
Psych eval - comprehensive assessment to determine what is a person's diagnostic picture.
how is treatment different than eval?
important part of therpy you develop close relationship . . . evaluator doesn't .. . they are unbiased 3rd party as evaluator.
2 different roles . . . . she doesn't eval on the patients that does therapy with .. . .do not go in with hypothesis . . . .
forensic eval- some records first - read &review - indicators in there certain diagnosis vs. others. . ..
part of education . . . psychologist have a special power to go behind the words . . .
use those records as face value - objective data . . . .
what I mean is I look @ and give it to someone else they see exact same thing.
Exhibit #156 -journal entry Jan 24 - haven't written because there has been noteworthy to report.
is the kind of thing you do to think
she reads it and takes it @ face value . . . nothing noteworthy to report
would you chane this wording to say they wrote that but word nothing doesn't man nothing -does psychologist have special abiliy to go behind what is writtendown -trust me and disregard what it says here.
ojection- sustained
a psychotherapist with a Masters to go behind what it says
no and I am very familiar with the curriculum.
course taught Law of Attraction as a psychology degree?
no -not as way it is used in the secret . . . . my knowledge is limited - putting out positivity.
is Secret part of private reading or came across as part of your psychology degree or resideny
I am aware of it - it came up as a barrier to treatment in many patients who were reading it or watch video.
bad things happen in life . . . . not just positive
materials provided by JA . . . as part of this eval process.. .. what is next step?
schedule to go see this person
is there a mandate to see someone 44 hours
no that's extreme . . . never heard of someone making clinical interview is even more extreme. . . usually clinical interview about an hour. . . .foresic one can take a little longer.
@ 44 hours . . .it becomes more therapeutic . . . or my students who didn't know what they were doing and took a really long time .. . not good @ assessments
I didn't apologize to JA .. . it seems odd to apologize . . . .seems like evaluator is sayig they feel bad . . . not appropriate for evaluator.
Psychologists often do not take on objective evaluator . . . .have trouble
you shouldn't feel that compassion - it would bias your results. . . if you feel bad fo them you want to help them .. . results will not be accurate.
How many hours clinical interview in this case?
12 hours is high.
I did additional testing in addition.
done with 12 hours and testing was done - did you go back an see her 12 mo later?
no I would never do that
objection - approach
