Forensic Evaluation |
|
|
|
|
Forensic
evaluation describes any assessment
process conducted for or through the
legal system.
Dr. Garber conducts forensic
psychological evaluations. In general,
this means applying psychological
theories, methods, and measurements to
help the court answer legal questions.
For example:
Family Systems Evaluation (FSE)
is an assessment of the relationship
dynamics (that is, the patterns of
thoughts, behaviors, and expressed
emotions) that characterize a family.
FSE is particularly valuable when the
court seeks to answer questions about
child custody including -for example-
how best to allocate two or more
parents' future rights and
responsibilities post-divorce.
Parenting Capacity Evaluation
(PCE) advises the court about an
individual adult's thoughts, beliefs,
and practices about caring for a
child.
Individual child or adult
psychological assessment endeavors to
answers questions for the court about
a particular individual's social,
emotional, and/or developmental
strengths and weaknesses.
