Assessment Supervision for Psychologists
Supervision that builds confidence in assessment reasoning and diagnostic clarity
Led by Dr Sophie Li, Director of Neuropsychology and Operations at Aperture Psychology, our assessment supervision offers psychologists a considered, supportive space to strengthen their assessment skills.
Whether you are developing your confidence with comprehensive neurodevelopmental assessments, working through a complex differential, or wanting a second set of eyes on a report, this is a place to think clearly about the work and grow as a clinician.
A space to refine your assessment practice
Conducting high-quality assessments is demanding work. The interpretation, the integration of cognitive, behavioural, developmental, and functional information, the diagnostic reasoning, and the responsibility of communicating findings clearly all take time and skill to develop.
This supervision is designed for exactly that. Whether you are early in your assessment work or experienced and looking to sharpen your reasoning on complex cases, it is a space to be challenged thoughtfully, held to high standards, and met with warmth.
