Clinical Reports and Professional Evaluations

Rigorous documentation for professional, academic, and judicial matters

Professional support when your situation must be clearly and accurately documented

Certain life situations require more than therapeutic support. They call for structured clinical reports, prepared by licensed professionals, to support professional, academic, administrative, or judicial processes.

At October Wellness, we offer a specialized service in clinical reporting and professional evaluations based on rigorous clinical observations, functional analysis, and sound professional judgment.

Purpose of These Reports

Clinical reports and professional evaluations may be used to support processes involving:

  • Employers

  • Private or public insurance providers

  • Schools, colleges, and universities

  • Public institutions

  • Judicial and administrative bodies

These reports are designed to document a person’s psychosocial or functional reality within an ethical, professional, and recognized framework.


Reports Prepared by a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW Equivalent)

Clinical reports prepared by a licensed clinical social worker may include:

  • Clinical observation reports related to mental health

  • Reports supporting work leave or gradual return-to-work processes

  • Reports describing psychosocial functional limitations

  • Reports for insurance or public benefit programs

  • Reports for employers outlining functional impacts and accommodation needs

  • Clinical follow-up reports and attestations

All reports are based on:

  • Actual clinical sessions

  • A thorough analysis of psychosocial functioning

  • The clinician’s professional judgment


Use in Judicial Contexts (Including DUI Cases)

Psychosocial clinical observation reports prepared by a licensed social worker may be used and recognized by courts, particularly in:

  • Driving Under the Influence (DUI) cases

  • Judicial processes requiring documentation of voluntary clinical engagement

  • Situations where psychosocial functioning, accountability, and clinical progress must be demonstrated

These reports do not constitute medico-legal expertise; however, they are commonly accepted as credible complementary clinical documentation by judicial and administrative authorities.

Compliance With the Professional Order of Social Workers

All clinical reports are prepared in accordance with:

  • The scope of practice of licensed social workers

  • The Code of Ethics

  • The standards of the Ordre des travailleurs sociaux et des thérapeutes conjugaux et familiaux du Québec

Reports may include:

  • Clinical observations

  • Psychosocial analysis

  • Functional impacts

  • General professional recommendations

Reports do not include:

  • Medical diagnoses

  • Psychiatric or psychological expert opinions

  • Legal or medico-legal conclusions
