Psychological Assessment
“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”

Psychological Assessment Service
At ISM we always complete an assessment of need to aid formulation and intervention planning. We use a range of standardised assessment tools as well as structured tools that rely on structured professional judgement. Once we receive a referral and meet with the young people we will decide the most appropriate assessments to help understand the presenting issues.
We can provide assessments for the following problems:
- Social and emotional functioning
- Cognitive functioning
- Executive functioning
- Oppositional or conduct problems
- Attachment
- Trauma
- Self harm
- Anxiety
- Low Mood
- Anger
- Parenting capacity
- Risk of offending / re-offending (e.g. violence, sexual violence)
- Risk of vulnerability (e.g. Child Sexual Abuse, Child Sexual Exploitation)
Who can Refer?
We accept self-referrals and professional referrals such as Social Work, GP’s and Education.
Locations
We accept referrals from all over Scotland and the North of England.
