WHAT IS A PSYCHOLOGICAL IMMIGRATION EVALUATION?

If you're applying for immigration benefits, your attorney may ask you to get a psychological evaluation as part of your case.

 

This is a clinical report written by a licensed mental health professional. It documents the emotional and psychological impact of what you've experienced — whether that's trauma, abuse, fear of returning to your home country, or the hardship a deportation would cause to your family.

 

These evaluations are used in cases like VAWA, asylum, extreme hardship waivers (I-601/I-601A), U Visa, and T Visa petitions. They give immigration judges and officers a clear picture of what you've been through — in clinical terms that carry legal weight.

TYPES OF EVALUATIONS

I work with clients across a range of immigration cases. Each evaluation is tailored to the specific legal standard your case requires.

VAWA

For individuals who have experienced abuse by a spouse, partner, or family member.

Asylum

For individuals fleeing violence, persecution, or danger in their home country.

Extreme Hardship Waiver
(I-601 / I-601A)

For cases where a U.S. citizen or permanent resident would suffer extreme hardship if their family member is deported.

U Visa

For individuals who have been victims of serious crimes in the United States and have cooperated with law enforcement.

T Visa

For survivors of human trafficking. Effects of exploitation and supports the petition for legal protection.

ABOUT TRINIDAD ZULUAGA

I'm a licensed bilingual psychotherapist born and raised in Medellín, Colombia. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Bastyr University and have research experience at Harvard University. I've spent more than 12 years working with trauma, and more than 5 years focused specifically on psychological immigration evaluations.

 

What drives my work is not just clinical training: it's lived experience. I went through the U.S. immigration process myself. I know what it means to sit across from someone who holds part of your future in their hands, and to need your story to be understood clearly and completely.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY FOR ADULTS

Alongside my immigration evaluation practice, I offer individual psychotherapy for adults in English and Spanish. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in somatic therapy, Internal Family Systems, and mindfulness.

 

I work with people who have experienced domestic violence, human trafficking, complex trauma, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. If you're looking for support (not just an evaluation), I'm here for that too.
