I am fluent in English and Farsi (Persian). I provide comprehensive, culturally responsive psychological evaluations for immigration matters, including hardship waivers, asylum, VAWA, T-visa, and U-visa cases. My approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and grounded in forensic clinical experience. What sets my work apart is my background in forensic mental health and complex evaluations, which allows me to produce thorough, well-documented reports that are clear, and objective. I prioritize accuracy, professionalism, and compassion, while ensuring clients feel respected, supported, and informed throughout the process. I work collaboratively with clients and attorneys to provide evaluations that are both clinically sound and legally useful.
