Immigration Evaluations
Your story is powerful.
Your story isn’t detrimental to your case. In fact, it might actually be an essential part of it. Several types of immigration cases can be supported by a forensic mental health assessment. I provide evaluations and reports for the following types of immigration cases:
Asylum
VAWA
Hardship waiver
T-Visa
U-Visa
Evaluations are generally completed online over Zoom, with professional medical interpreters when needed.
I provide evaluations to clients located in Colorado, Florida, Massachusetts, Nevada, Utah, and Washington.
Choose an evaluator with the right experience.
I have dedicated my career as a therapist to working with individuals who have experienced trauma. In my opinion, immigration evaluations are a way to combine clinical expertise and legal support. I offer a combination of skills and areas of expertise to partner with you or your clients effectively:
Specialized training in immigration evaluations through The Culture of Health, PLLC
Several years of experience writing biopsychosocial assessments, crisis psychiatric evaluations, and diagnostic evaluations
Extensive training and experience working with PTSD and trauma
Familiarity with the legal system and medical report writing
Compassion, respect, and knowledge of supportive resources
