Mental Competency Assessment & Training (MCAT) Program - Full Service

Our Mental Competency Assessment and Training (MCAT) Community-Based Program delivers comprehensive competency restoration services for juveniles and adults who are developmentally delayed or have mental health issues and struggle to participate in the judicial process.

Our competency restoration program provides mental competency assessment and training services for juveniles and adults who are developmentally delayed or have mental health issues and are unable to adequately participate in the judicial process because they are either unable to understand the legal proceedings presented to them or they are unable to assist counsel in their own defense in a rational manner. Our comprehensive program is specifically designed to evaluate and enhance an individual’s ability to stand trial providing tailored support to ensure each client receives the appropriate care and guidance to navigate the judicial process effectively.

Each phase includes comprehensive training manuals, workbooks, interactive digital activities, and phase assessments to track progress. We offer direct services in Central and Northern California and electronic services nationwide.

Mental Competency Assessment & Training (MCAT) Program - Subscription-Based

We are pleased to introduce our Subscription-Based Mental Competency Assessment & Training (MCAT) Program, Juvenile and Adult Training for Competency to Stand Trial. This model is ideal for organizations or professionals seeking to independently run a successful competency restoration program.

Our subscription-based competency program provides the training materials necessary for you to successfully provide competency training services to juveniles and adults who are developmentally delayed or have mental health issues and are unable to adequately participate in the judicial process because they are either unable to understand the legal proceedings presented to them or they are unable to assist counsel in their own defense in a rational manner.

With our Subscription-Based MCAT Program, you’re not just subscribing to a program, but you’re joining a community dedicated to ensuring fair and appropriate legal processes for all.

We provide a variety of clinical and forensic psychological assessments thoughtfully designed to cater to the unique needs of each client.

Psychwest provides a wide spectrum of forensic assessments for juvenile and adults including Mental Competency to Stand Trial Assessments, Risk Assessments (including risk of future violence and sexual risk), Diversion Placement Assessments, evaluations related to insanity pleas, Murphy Conservatorships, bonding assessments, and more.

Clinically, our psychological assessment services focus on gauging the mental wellbeing of our clients and include most all non-court related evaluations. For all assessments, we are committed to delivering tailored, insightful solutions, providing you with the benefit of our expertise and unwavering dedication to excellence. Our team of experts combines meticulous methodology with extensive experience in the field to provide accurate, reliable, and meaningful evaluations with comprehensive psychological reports.

WELCOME TO PSYCHWEST

Our Leadership, Our Commitment-Forensic Services You Can Rely On!

Psychwest, Clinical & Forensic Psychology, Inc. is committed to providing exceptional clinical and forensic services, specializing in competency training for those deemed incompetent to stand trial and clinical and forensic psychological assessments!
Our Mental Competency Assessment and Training (MCAT) Program was established in 2007. Clients who have been found to be incompetent to stand trial and are ordered to receive competency training by the courts, can participate in our comprehensive 4-phase competency program. We provide both community-based (provide services to the client in their environment- correctional facility, home, group home, other community setting) and remote electronic training services to juveniles and adults. This program equips individuals with the necessary skills to participate in their judicial process.

Our Subscription-Based Mental Competency Assessment and Training (MCAT) Program places the power of our comprehensive MCAT Program in your hands, enabling you to provide high-quality, mental competency services to your clients. You will gain full access to our innovative curriculum, engaging digital activities, and carefully crafted training material. This allows you to independently run a successful competency restoration program, with the added flexibility to license your own trainers.

We provide both clinical and forensic psychological assessments. Forensic assessments assist the court in examining specific aspects of mental health within the legal context to address legal questions. Our clinical psychological assessments assist in identifying the underlying causes of an individual’s symptoms and developing a treatment plan that is tailored to their needs.
