Show Notes

Psychological testing can be complicated. It shouldn't have to be hostile, even if the evaluation is not intended to be in a client's best interest. In today's episode, Jacob shares his experience of a truly ridiculous psych assessment, and we speak with Rachel Simon, LCSW MEd about how assessors can minimize the harmful impact of their own biases – and the biases built into the psych tests themselves.
