Psychosexual Evaluations in Orlando

Expert Assessment for Legal Matters

When legal cases require specialized psychological insight, Dr. Janie Lacy provides comprehensive psychosexual evaluations across Central Florida with over 18 years of clinical expertise.

What Is a Psychosexual Evaluation?

A psychosexual evaluation is a specialized, court-recognized assessment that provides the legal system with professional insight into an individual’s sexual development, behaviors, and functioning.

These evaluations are typically used for:

• • Court-ordered assessments related to sexual offense allegations

• • Pre-sentencing evaluations

• • Custody or family law cases involving sexual misconduct allegations

• • Treatment planning and risk assessment

• • Probation or parole compliance

• • Professional licensing board investigations

Important: These evaluations do not determine guilt or innocence. They provide objective insights to help courts, attorneys, and treatment providers make informed decisions.

The Evaluation Process

Thorough examination of legal documents, police reports, treatment records, and case materials.

2. Clinical Interview

In-depth, professional interviews exploring psychosexual development, history, and relevant factors.

3. Psychological Testing

Standardized assessments measuring psychological functioning, sexual attitudes, risk factors, and treatment responsiveness using validated tools (MMPI-3, Static-99R, Stable-2007).

4. Collateral Information

When appropriate, gathering information from family members or treatment providers with proper authorization.

5. Comprehensive Report

Detailed clinical report including:

• • Assessment findings and diagnoses

• • Evidence-based risk assessment

• • Responses to referral questions

Time Required: 2-4 hours of face-to-face assessment, plus additional time for review and report writing.

Our Approach

While maintaining objectivity and professional standards, Dr. Lacy approaches each evaluation with:

✓ Compassion & Respect – Every individual’s story is heard with dignity
✓ Professional Integrity – Highest ethical standards
✓ Evidence-Based Methods – Current research and validated tools
✓ Clear Communication – Accessible reports with actionable recommendations
✓ Deep Expertise – 18+ years specializing in sexual behavior, addiction, and trauma

Understanding Confidentiality

Court-ordered evaluations differ from traditional therapy:

• • Limited Confidentiality – Findings are shared with the court or referral source

• • No Therapist-Patient Privilege – Information may be included in legal proceedings

• • Informed Consent – Clear explanation of purpose and confidentiality limits provided upfront

• • Objective Role – The evaluator provides professional assessment, not advocacy

Who Can Request an Evaluation?

• • Criminal defense or prosecuting attorneys

• • Judges or courts

• • Family law attorneys

• • Probation or parole officers

• • Child protective services

• • Professional licensing boards

If you’ve been ordered to complete an evaluation, work closely with your attorney to understand its purpose and implications.
