I operate at the intersection of clinical expertise and legal relevance.

A psychosexual evaluation is a comprehensive psychological assessment that examines an individual’s sexual history, development, behaviors, interests, and psychological functioning.

We conduct detailed evaluations that integrate:

  • Clinical and forensic interviews
  • Psychological testing and validated assessment tools
  • Review of legal, medical, and collateral records
  • Risk assessment for reoffending or harmful behavior
  • Diagnostic impressions and individualized recommendations

These evaluations are frequently utilized in:

  • Legal proceedings (sentencing, probation, parole)
  • Forensic assessments in criminal cases
  • Treatment planning and progress evaluations
  • Child welfare and protective services cases
  • Risk management and behavioral analysis

Our reports are structured to provide clarity, clinical accuracy, and practical utility within legal contexts.

About Kimberly Yost, LCPC

Kimberly Yost, LCPC, is a licensed clinical professional counselor specializing in psychosexual evaluation and assessment.

Kimberly’s clinical foundation was shaped through advanced training at the Johns Hopkins Hospital Sexual Behaviors Consultation Unit, a nationally recognized center for sexual health and behavioral research.

During her time at Johns Hopkins, she worked directly with individuals presenting a wide spectrum of sexual concerns—from dysfunction and desire-related challenges to complex behavioral and forensic issues. This experience established a deep, nuanced understanding of sexual health as both a clinical and human dimension.

She further advanced her specialization through postgraduate training in Human Sexuality Studies at Widener University, expanding her expertise in both therapeutic and evaluative frameworks.

Kimberly also worked with the National Institute for the Study, Prevention and Treatment of Sexual Trauma, where she provided individual, couples, family, and group therapy focused on sexual health and behavioral treatment.

With over a decade of experience, her work now centers on psychosexual evaluations within legal and forensic contexts. She is known for delivering assessments that are clinically sophisticated, ethically grounded, and highly relevant to judicial decision-making.

Her approach is measured, nonjudgmental, and grounded in creating a professional environment where even the most sensitive information can be examined with clarity and respect.
