Mental Health Assistant Corporacion Bresky, Valparaiso, Chile 2003 Program Director, Fernando Lobos Moraga Research Consultation: Social Cognition and Object Relations Scale (SCORS) 2006-present Co-developed the training manual for the Social Cognition and Object Relations Scale-Global Rating Method (SCORS-G) listed below. This can be used to rate most narrative based data including early memories, psychotherapy sessions, Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) cards, and dreams. This measure can be used for clinical (e.g., psychotherapy, assessment) as well as for research purposes (e.g., psychotherapy process and outcome). I am considered to be one of the top experts on this measure and have been consulted to either score or aid with scoring both nationally and internationally. Currently, this measure is one of the top scoring systems for rating TAT narratives. It has been the focus of multiple peer-reviewed journal articles. Comparative Psychotherapy Process Scale (CPPS) 2009-2010 Collaborated with Columbia Medical School on the Comparative Outcomes of Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis Study. My role was as an expert rater on the CPPS. The supervisors of this study included: Steven Roose, M.D., Eve Caligor, M.D., and Mark Hilsenroth, Ph.D.
