Our comprehensive assessments typically take between 4 to 6 hours to complete.
In some instances, completing the assessment over two appointments may be necessary.

Cognitive Status Assessment*Cognitive Status Assessments examine an individual's strengths and deficits, by utilizing intelligence testing, level of independent functioning examinations, memory testing, and through testing of academic abilities. These assessments are used by agencies to identify an individual's qualification for additional services. They are also used by parents to examine the strengths and areas which need more attention with their children. At times, individuals have requested this testing to examine possible cognitive deterioration.
*Cognitive Status Assessments are currently only administered in the Sartell and Brainerd office locations. |
Domestic Violence AssessmentDomestic Violence Assessments, using the Domestic Violence Inventory (DVI), are completed for individuals, social services, court orders, and corrections agents to examine the need for an intervention or therapy to address specific concerns.

Our Psychosexual assessments meet all of the criteria requested by the Department of Corrections and are highly regarded in court. Many of the Psychosexual Assessments completed at CORE are not court ordered. Personality testing and risk assessments (as appropriate) are included, along with an examination of sexual history and a detailed description of diagnostic issues. We utilize Dynamic Risk Assessments.
