🌎 Walking the Journey Together

Why I Now Offer Immigration Evaluations

I’ll be honest—immigration was never something I thought much about until I supported a close friend through the process. Sitting beside them during appointments, witnessing their stress, and seeing how much their future depended on psychological documentation changed everything.

I realized how confusing, emotional, and overwhelming immigration can be—and how deeply people need compassion, clarity, and support during this journey. That experience inspired me to begin offering professional, trauma-informed immigration psychological evaluations for individuals and families across Kansas City, Missouri, Kansas, and beyond.

❤️ Why Immigration Evaluations Matter

Immigration cases are deeply personal. They involve:

• Family separation

• Trauma and safety concerns

• Identity and belonging

• Fear of returning to unsafe environments

A strong psychological evaluation helps immigration courts understand the real emotional and psychological impact of your situation.

My role is to create a safe, welcoming space where your story is honored and documented with clinical accuracy and cultural sensitivity.

🌐 Support for All Languages
