Psychological Assessments for Immigration Cases
Finding a mental health professional who speaks your clients’ native language and understands their culture can be a challenge. I can help your Spanish-speaking clients with the psychosocial evaluations they need for their immigrations cases.
I have worked with a number of different lawyers in the city of Seattle helping the immigrant community in a number of cases such as hardship, U-visas, and VAWA. My approach to evaluations is to work closely with with each attorney to make the assessment process as efficient and convenient as it can be for your timeline and your clients’ resources.
Here is what others say about my services:
“I have used Maria-Jose’s evaluations in multiple immigration cases requiring hardship evaluations. Her work is professional and honest. In addition, her language skills, coupled with her in-depth knowledge of cross-cultural issues is invaluable. These assets allow her to have a better understanding of issues common to foreign born clients and allow her to communicate to many in their native language. I would not hesitate to recommend Maria-Jose to those in need of a mental health care evaluation or counseling.” –Patrick M. Julian, Attorney at Law, Julian & Chin, LLP.
“Maria-Jose is always very responsive to my questions and her reports have proven to be very helpful; my clients have reported that they have found her evaluations to be helpful to them personally as well.” –Peter Hurtado, Attorney at Law.
