Immigration Mental Health Evaluations
Immigration Mental Health Evaluations
If you're navigating an immigration process, a mental health evaluation can help document the emotional and mental health impact of your experience in a clear and clinically appropriate way.
I provide comprehensive evaluations for cases such as:
Extreme Hardship Waivers
Asylum
Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)
U-Visa (Victims of crime)
T-Visa (Human trafficking)
Each evaluation includes a clinical interview, a written report, and coordination with your attorney when needed.
My goal is to document your experience clearly, accurately, and respectfully.
Evaluations are available in English and Spanish, in person at my White Plains office or virtually for clients in New York.
My Approach
Clear, objective evaluations conducted with respect and care.
A Trauma-Informed Process
Evaluations are conducted with attention to safety, pacing, and choice. You’re welcome to ask questions and take breaks at any point.
An Objective Clinical Assessment
Each evaluation is an objective assessment by a licensed clinical social worker. It is not an advocacy report and does not guarantee any immigration outcome.
Coordination with Your Attorney
With your consent, I communicate with your attorney and review available documentation as part of the evaluation.
A Thorough Written Report
Clinical interviews and standardized assessments lead to a written report of clinical findings, which you or your attorney may submit to USCIS or an immigration court. Oral testimony is not provided.
