With such a coarse measurement scale and only 10 cases, I would take any result with a good dose of salt even with the exact tests.

I have two columns of data made up of 10 rows, representing families. The data in each row is the choice (Frequently (3), Moderately (2), and Rarely (1)) made by a family member and professional about another individual.   I am interested if there is a correlation between the two: family members and professionals.
Does a Spearman rho provide me with this answer or is there a better test?
