Best to you, Kobi! I only know some things from the side of writing reports as a psychotherapist for clients to have their legal reps use. One piece of advise I have is to talk to your attorney/rep about making certain that if these kinds of evaluations are needed, it is a good idea to have them prepared by a therapist that has experince in this area- knows the SSA trail of red-tape. A good disability therapist can cut through a lot of gartbage that just isn't needed and get to what is important to help you gain the SSD benefits you are entitled too. Sticking to the points the SSA are looking at and not going anywhere else in reports is the key. A good relationship between your docs, the lawyer and a therapist (if one is involved/required for your case) makes things go more smoothly.
