Something about this doesn't seem right as well as being entirely frustrating and angering. You have every right to know what your files say. And how could you possibly go to therapy when you are mandated but don't know the reason? That just doesn't make any sense at all.

I know a little bit about tests like this. They need to be carefully interpreted with a very close detailed clinical interview. They cannot be used without personal information because they are simply not sensitive enough to tell the difference between something supposedly pathological and something adjusted. You could have produced a "spike" on a certain area just because you didn't fill in the question right or misunderstood its implications. Those all need to be clarified before anything else happens. So like I said it doesn't sound right to me. I would try to get a copy of the report made on the tests so that you know what is going on before you meet with anyone. You have a right to that information. I am not exactly sure about this, but I believe it is the law. At least it is for therapist's files so I would assume that psychological testing would fit under the same laws.
