I conduct psychological immigration evaluations in Spanish, French and Haitian Creole. I have experience with Hardship Waiver, asylum, VAWA and N-648 assessments. While I am a licensed psychologist in Florida and New York, I am also a PsyPact authorized provider which means that I can provide evaluations services by video to clients located in over 40 states. At the moment, I do most evaluations virtually. If the person is local to the Orlando area, I can meet with the client in my office located in Orlando.
I have a forensic psychology background. Therefore, if your case requires expert testimony, I can accommodate; this service is charged separately. Please feel free to contact me for additional information.
