Why Immigration Psychological Evaluations Matter

A psychological evaluation can play a crucial role in your immigration process. It helps demonstrate the emotional hardship, trauma, or psychological distress that may support your case. At Restore Psychology, we conduct evaluations that are both clinically sound and legally relevant—crafted to provide judges, attorneys, and immigration officers with clear, professional insight.

We offer professional psychological assessments for a range of immigration cases, including:

  • Asylum Cases: Evaluating the emotional and psychological effects of persecution, trauma, or displacement.

  • Extreme Hardship Waivers (I-601 & I-601A): Documenting the potential mental health impact on qualifying family members if separated or relocated.

  • VAWA (Violence Against Women Act): Providing evaluations for survivors of domestic violence to support self-petitions.

  • U Visa: Supporting victims of crime who have suffered significant psychological harm.
