Abstract

In this article we describe Therapeutic Assessment (TA), a model supported by research for using psychological assessment as a therapeutic intervention. After discussing the goals, history, and applications of TA, we discuss the six steps of a TA: (1) initial sessions, (2) testing sessions, (3), Assessment Intervention Sessions, (4) summary/discussion sessions, (5) written feedback, and (6) follow-up sessions. We highlight the process of each of these steps using a case example of an adult TA. We conclude by discussing how TA works and indicating how people can seek out a TA and learn more about TA.
