Offering Immigration Psychosocial Assessments and Play Therapy Counseling Services

Welcome!

I’m glad you’re here. Whether you’re a parent looking for support for your child, navigating family transitions, or carrying the stress and uncertainty that can come with an immigration process, you don’t have to do it alone. I offer a warm, confidential, and supportive space where clients feel seen, understood, and cared for.

My specialty is provide Immigration Psychosocial Assessments. These assessments are thorough, culturally sensitive, and trauma-informed, designed to document psychological and emotional factors that may be relevant in immigration proceedings. My goal is to create clear, compassionate reports that accurately reflect your experiences and help your story be understood with respect and care.

Additional areas of focus include working with children and families, with a specialized emphasis on Play Therapy. Play is a child’s natural language, and in the playroom children can safely express feelings, experiences, and needs that may be difficult to put into words. Rather than seeing a child as a “problem to be fixed,” I approach each child as a whole person to be understood and supported. Together, we work toward healthier emotional expression, stronger coping skills, and more positive ways of relating at home and in daily life.

If you’d like to learn more or see whether we’re a good fit, I invite you to reach out to schedule an initial consultation.

How I Can Help

Immigration Psychosocial Assessments

As a bilingual (English–Spanish) and bicultural therapist, and as an immigrant myself, I deeply understand the cultural and emotional challenges families face. My mission is to create thorough, compassionate, and impactful reports that can support your path to legal status.

Has your attorney recommended a psychological evaluation for your immigration case? In many situations, a professional evaluation can make the difference in the outcome. For more than seventeen years, I have provided detailed immigration psychological evaluations that serve as valuable evidence in legal proceedings. 

Each evaluation includes: 

  • - A complete biopsychosocial history 
  • - Behavioral observations and clinical assessment
  • - DSM-5™ diagnoses supported by standardized tools
  • - A written report that follows immigration standards

I provide evaluations for:

  • - Hardship Waivers (I-601 & I-601A) 
  • - U-Visa and VAWA petitions 
  • - Asylum and T-Visa cases 
  • - Cancelation of Removal

Play Therapy for Children

Does your child need therapy? Do you need help and support navigating the delightful but also strenuous task of being a parent? If the answer to any of those questions is yes, you have come to the right place!

I provide a safe, confidential, and caring environment that allows healing to occur as children follow their inner trend towards health.

I specialize in treating children by using Play Therapy, a psychotherapeutic approach primarily used to help children fully express and explore themselves (feelings, thoughts, experiences, and behaviors) through play, their natural medium of communication.

When a child enters in my playroom, I do not see it as a 'problem to be solved,' I only see a full person to be understood, valued, and related to. My goal is to help children learn to express themselves in healthier ways, become more empathetic, and explore new and more positive ways to solve problems.
