Comprehensive Asylum Evaluations
The asylum process is a challenging and often overwhelming experience. As a dedicated professional, I offer specialized psychological evaluations for applicants seeking asylum.
How I Can Help:
1. Personalized Approach. With more than 13 years working with asylum cases, I understand the unique challenges faced and tailor my evaluations, utilizing clinically supported and evidence based metrics.
2. Specialized Expertise. Since 2010 I have assisted clients from Latin America, Mongolia and Eritrea with their asylum applications. I have also worked closely with Survivors International affiliated law offices. The client cases covered LGTBQ+, gang persecution, domestic violence and individuals seeking asylum based on political affiliation. As a licensed and experienced therapist, my expertise ensures that the evaluation process is conducted with sensitivity, understanding, and a deep awareness of the psychological impact of trauma and persecution.
3. Holistic Assessment. The evaluation covers a comprehensive range of psycho-social factors directly relevant to asylum claims. This broad approach allows for an understanding of your experiences, supporting a more thorough and accurate assessment.
4. Strengthens Your Case. A 2021 study found that immigration relief cases that had a psychological and/or medical evaluation were significantly more likely to be granted than those who did not (81.6% vs. an average of 42.4%). The majority (73.7%) of granted cases were for asylum. My reports are designed to provide a detailed narrative, enhancing the credibility of your claims.
5. Timely and Flexible Services. My goal is to provide timely and flexible services, ensuring that your evaluation is conducted efficiently to meet the time frame of your asylum application.
