According to the law, a psychosocial assessment by a behavioral specialist or psychologist is required when donation treatment with eggs and/or sperm is being considered. This usually involves one or two sessions before the treatment can be carried out. This is referred to as a “psychosocial assessment/psychosocial evaluation.”
The special examination during the conversation with the psychologist regarding donation can be perceived as demanding for those wishing to become parents. Our psychologist works with respect and a compassionate approach, with clear information about the purpose of the assessment being of fundamental importance in the conversations.
The assessment itself is carried out with a strong child perspective, focusing on the future child’s security and aligning with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, particularly Article 3, which states that the child’s best interests must come first.
For treatments where a psychological assessment is required beforehand, you can book an appointment directly with our psychologist. Contact details are provided below.
