Forensic Assessment & Treatment

Professional Matters

Assessment. Supervision. Treatment.

Busy professionals are accustomed to taking care of others’ needs. When professionals need support, they want someone who understands their situation and who has the expertise to help them deal with relevant issues so that they can continue to work effectively in the field to which they have devoted themselves. At Central Melbourne Psychology we have the skills and expertise you need to manage professional issues. Our services include:

Provision of an independent assessment and report

We have assisted many professionals dealing with allegations of misconduct by providing an objective evaluation of the issues underpinning the matters which have led to the notification. Our comprehensive reports can provide lawyers and professionals with advice regarding the professional’s strengths as well as identifying areas for improvement.  We are also able to provide a second opinion regarding reports provided by a Board’s expert.  Having been called to give evidence both for various Boards and for professionals in a range of disciplines, we have the expertise and credibility you need to manage these situations.

Professional Supervision

Supervision provides you with a chance to reflect on your practice and identify areas for improvement and professional development.  We have assisted many health professionals to hone their clinical skills. In situations where a notification has been made, we can assist by providing supervision regarding the areas where improvement is needed.  We also provide general supervision to professionals who are not facing allegations.

Treatment

We are also able to provide specialist treatment services to professionals who have experienced issues with sexual misconduct, substance use, anger problems and a range of other mental-health concerns.
