Clinical Supervision
Clinical supervision is available for practitioners seeking full licensure (LCSW and LAC) in NJ, ensuring that updated accreditation and licensing laws, regulations, and standards are communicated and followed.
Mitigation Services
Using high-level clinical and assessment skills, we provide in-depth mitigation reports for judges to utilize at each step of the legal process. The strength of these assessments lies in our extensive understanding of the legal system coupled with trauma-informed interviewing. These reports help to reduce sentencing, enabling the individual to return home and support their families and become a productive member of their community.

Testimonials
~Private Attorney
"Ms. LaValva's services were extremely beneficial in helping the court see a side of my client that they otherwise would ignore when contemplating an appropriate sentence. Her thorough and insightful analysis of my client helped convince a criminal Judge to reduce my client's recommended sentence by 3 years."
~Public Defender
“What was different about this pre-sentence report and its effect on client’s sentencing was the way in which it presented a 3D image of him as a young man with talents, but also tremendous trauma.”
~ John Weichsel, JD
