Assessments

Each assessment will be individually tailored depending on the presenting difficulties and needs identified. These will be discussed as part of the referral process.

Our standard therapeutic assessment incorporates the Meaning of the Child Interview, MIM and a child-based attachment assessment measure to provide a holistic assessment of the inter relational dynamics, family functioning, strengths and vulnerabilities within  the family from an attachment and developmental trauma perspective. This can be adapted to meet the needs of the family and commissioning service.

ADDITIONAL ASSESSMENT MEASURES MAY INCLUDE:

  • Care Index
  • Adult Attachment Interview
  • Child Attachment Interview
  • School age assessment of attachment
  • Observations in school and home environment
  • Trauma index
  • Sibling assessments
  • Video assessments
