Psychosexual evaluations are sometimes requested by legal officials during the court process for those on trial for a sexual offense. The goal of these evaluations are to identify the level of risk of re-offense and what kind of treatment would be appropriate and effective. It is not “profiling” and does not determine guilt or innocence. Typically, these evaluations consist of a general psychological evaluation, exploring personality and mental health needs, as well as a forensic evaluation that explores sexual history and preferences. Together, this comprehensive evaluation can offer valuable information to the court system and help them to make informed decisions and determinations.
