Purpose-led psychological evaluation
Parental Fitness Evaluations.
Careful evaluation. A clearly defined referral.
Dr. Lindsay Campbell offers parental-fitness evaluations. Contact the practice to discuss the purpose of the referral, any written requirements, and whether the requested evaluation is a fit.
A clear purpose
Start with the question the evaluation needs to address.
A referral may come with specific questions or documentation requirements. Clarifying those expectations before booking helps establish the scope of the evaluation and who may receive the findings.
This is an evaluation service, not a promise of a favorable finding or a particular custody, agency, or court outcome. Legal questions should be discussed with your attorney.
Before you book.
Discuss the referral
Let the practice know you are seeking a parental-fitness evaluation and whether a referring professional has provided written requirements.
Confirm the scope
Discuss whether the request can be accepted, what participation or documentation is needed, fees, and scheduling.
Clarify communication
Ask about the evaluation process, confidentiality and its limits, and authorized recipients of documentation before proceeding.
A few helpful answers.
Is this the same as a child-custody evaluation?
Do not assume they are interchangeable. Contact the practice with the exact referral requirements so the scope can be reviewed before booking.
Can an attorney or referring professional get in touch?
An attorney or referring professional may inquire about whether a referral can be accepted. Please request instructions before sending records or sensitive case information.
Will the evaluation guarantee a specific outcome?
No. No particular clinical finding or legal outcome is guaranteed. The practice must first confirm the scope and appropriateness of the referral.
Is this therapy or legal representation?
This page describes an evaluation service, not therapy or legal representation. Ask the practice to explain the evaluator's role and the limits of confidentiality before booking.
What are the fees, appointment formats, and turnaround time?
Ask the practice about the fee, available appointment formats, required information, and anticipated completion date for your specific referral. Confirm payment arrangements before booking; insurance information for other services is not a coverage promise for this evaluation.
