Immigration Evaluations

Hardship WAIVER and Political Asylum

A psychosocial evaluation can provide important insights into the potential impacts of separating an immigrant from their U.S. citizen or legal resident family members. Such an evaluation can help document a family member’s need for emotional support, caretaking, and financial assistance and predict the impact separation may have on their social and emotional functioning. In this way, a psychosocial evaluation can play a crucial role in demonstrating the extreme hardship that removal of an immigrant would cause to their loved ones.

You may be eligible for political asylum if you are fleeing political persecution or severe emotional distress. Please consult with your immigration attorney if a mental health evaluation would aid your case.

U Visa and T Visa

As a seasoned mental health therapist, I understand the impact that crime and trauma can have on individuals and families. I offer immigration evaluations for U Visa, which may provide a pathway to the U.S for those who have suffered from a serious crime or experienced significant emotional distress.

I also provide comprehensive immigration evaluations for individuals seeking to obtain a T Visa. Human trafficking victims and their families can face unusual or severe harm if they are deported. These psychosocial evaluations may supplement your T Visa immigration case. Always consult with your immigration attorney if a mental health evaluation is right for your immigration case.
