Psychosexual Evaluation, Fredericksburg

Psychosexual Evaluations are conducted by Certified Sex Offender Treatment Professionals (CSOTP) with a focus on one’s sexual history, including the exploration of sexual development, attitudes, fantasies, and adjustment.

To enhance the reliability, comprehensiveness, and usefulness of the psychosexual evaluations, all available sources of information are reviewed and integrated into the process. Important sources of information may include police reports, victim statements, prior treatment records, school records, court interviews with the individual, and interviews with others. Parents are also interviewed when a juvenile is the subject of the evaluation.

Psychosexual Assessments are designed to determine:

• The risk of recidivism,
• Interventions that will be most effective,
• Specific risk factors,
• One’s willingness to comply with treatment recommendations and interventions,
• Identifying factors that may prevent engagement in treatment and interventions
• Identifying strengths and protective factors that are preventatives.
