Turnstone Psychology offers free mental health assessment for Veterans of the Canadian Armed Forces and current or retired RCMP members (assessments are billed directly to VAC). These assessments can be completed in person or virtually with clients in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. We prioritize these assessments and aim to complete them within 4-8 weeks of the initial request.
As part of the application for disability benefits, a thorough report summarizing the results of the psychological assessment is produced in addition to completing the VAC Psychological/Psychiatric Medical Questionnaire. We aim to make the best case possible to support the client's application for disability benefits, accurately describing the client's mental health history and linking their symptoms to their service whenever possible.
Many clients choose to continue with psychotherapy services following their assessment. Most clients have coverage for 2 years of treatment regardless of the outcome of their application for disability benefits
