Call (754) 225-9819If you or a loved one in Jacksonville Beach has an immigration case, a psychological evaluation can give the court clear, professional evidence of what an application alone cannot show. Najla prepares evaluations for asylum, extreme hardship waivers (I-601 and I-601A), VAWA self-petitions, U-Visa, T-Visa, and cancellation of removal.
An immigration psychological evaluation is a formal report by a licensed clinician that documents how immigration circumstances, such as past trauma, fear of return, family separation, abuse, or exceptional hardship, affect mental health. You will not have to simplify yourself for my benefit. Whichever of the three languages you think in is fine.
The process is calm and predictable: a free phone consultation, a two to three hour confidential interview, and a detailed written report delivered in about seven to fourteen days. Jacksonville Beach sits in Duval County, part of Northeast Florida, and Najla Sallum, LCSW serves clients statewide online and in person near Boca Raton. Reaching out is simple and confidential, and the first phone consultation is complimentary.
