Expert Testimony

Schedule a Consultation

I am available to provide expert testimony in court related to findings from forensic mental health evaluations as well as from ongoing therapy. This includes offering clinical opinions regarding diagnostic impressions, risk assessments, mental status, treatment progress, relationship dynamics, and other relevant findings. My testimony is based on thorough, evidence-based assessments and is guided by established standards of forensic practice and clinical care.

I offer expert testimony in:

  • Mental Health

  • Competency

  • Child development

  • Criminal responsibility and/or mental health considerations in sentencing

  • Disability findings

  • Guardianship and capacity determinations

  • Parental Advocacy

  • Parental Alienation

  • Parental Pathology

  • Parenting Plans and Custody Schedules

  • Psychological impact or trauma assessments

  • Reunification Therapy

  • Risk Assessment

  • Social and/or Socioeconomic Factors

It is well known within the legal and mental health communities that finding providers who are both qualified and willing to testify in court can be difficult.

Many clinicians do not offer testimony due to the time commitment, the complexity of the legal process, or concerns about cross-examination.

I recognize the essential role expert mental health testimony can play in ensuring accurate and fair legal outcomes, and I am committed to being available when such services are needed.

Regardless of the type of court or legal setting—criminal, civil, family, or other proceedings—I work to present findings in a clear, objective, and professional manner.

I am comfortable explaining clinical concepts to legal professionals, and I take care to ensure that my testimony remains aligned with both clinical integrity and legal relevance. My goal is to assist the court in understanding the mental health factors at hand so that decisions can be made with the benefit of expert insight.
