Immigration Evaluations
If you have an open case with United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), your attorney may recommend a mental health evaluation as part of your immigration proceedings. At Tierra y Alma Counseling Services, these evaluations are conducted with both professionalism and compassion, honoring the courage it takes to share your story in such an important context.
With specialized training and extensive experience, we provide evaluations for individuals navigating U-Visa, T-Visa, and VAWA petitions. Over the years, we have supported many survivors of domestic violence and other crimes by providing letters and detailed reports that highlight the emotional impact of their experiences.
What are they?
Immigration evaluations are thorough assessments that document the psychological and emotional effects of trauma, hardship, or crime — offering objective evidence that can strengthen a legal case. They are not just clinical documents—they’re a reflection of your story, your strength, and your resilience. Each evaluation is approached with care and respect, creating a space where your experiences can be shared and honored. Reports are written with both clinical depth and heart, ensuring your voice and truth are represented with clarity and dignity.
Our approach is rooted in cultural awareness and sensitivity. We understand the layers of family, cultural, and societal influences that shape each person’s story, and we strive to create a safe space where you feel respected and supported throughout the evaluation process.
