I have extensive experience conducting psychological evaluations for the courts, legal counsel and probation agencies. I will tailor a comprehensive custom psychological evaluation in consultation with referral parties. Such evaluations include:

  • General psychological evaluation of court defendants, including cognitive and personality assessment
  • Psychological evaluations of men accused or convicted of sexual offenses
  • Psychological evaluation of violent offenders
  • Assessment of risk of criminal recidivism, violence, or sexual reoffense
  • Evaluation for sexual offender civil commitment proceedings, to include second examiner and review functions
  • Evaluation of intervention amenability
  • Evaluation for competency to stand trial
  • Second opinion and records review/opinion
  • Mitigating factors for sentencing hearings
  • Degree of psychological injury (such as PTSD, abuse, stress)
  • Role of emotional and psychological factors in civil and criminal proceedings
  • Assessment and consultation regarding individuals with a high risk for aggressive behavior in the community, in the workplace and in treatment settings
  • Assessment of Malingering and symptom fabrication 
  • Consultation to legal counsel in formation of strategy regarding psychological and mental health issues

Psychological evaluations for court can be very complex and require a comprehensive approach. However, forensic psychological evaluations may be narrowly defined to meet a specific forensic need. I offer clear and succinct psychological evaluations built around your referral questions. Reports are constructed around the science of psychological evaluation, utilizing objective psychological testing instruments, a comprehensive review of case materials, and an exhaustive clinical interview known for its thoroughness and diligence. All reports are designed to endure the meticulous analysis required in court. 

Because I am a clinical psychologist, my training and experience has put me in touch with people, not "cases." My rates are reasonable and are negotiable per evaluation and take into account hours of records review, interviews, psychological testing, and travel time. Please feel free to call.
