Psychological Assessments for Immigration 

Esperanza Mental Health Services offers psychological evaluations for cases including, but not limited to:

1) U-Visas,

2) T-Visas,  

3) Provisional (i.e., hardship) waivers,

4) Cancellation of removal petitions,

5) Violence against women act (VAWA) requests,

6) Political asylum requests, and

7) Expedited petition requests 

Assessments generally consist of an individual (i.e., one-on-one) interview with the client; reviewing any legal documents (e.g. affidavits or police reports); and if necessary, meeting with the client's family members. Results from the measures are interpreted and written into a report.  The report is then sent to the individual and/or their attorney.  See below for contact to schedule an appointment.

Please speak with us directly as some cases are unique. Generally:

U-Visa cases are $550;

"Hardship" are $750;

All other evaluations are $650. 

If the report needs to be expedited there is a $100 additional charge. 

If the therapist's testimony in court is required, our fee is $175/hour including preparation with your attorney, transportation time, and waiting time.
