Hi, I’m Indi Zhao—a licensed professional counselor with a background in domestic violence, trauma and forensic psychology. I specialize in immigration evaluations that are not only thorough and legally sound, but also deeply compassionate. I understand that behind every case is a powerful personal story, and I approach each evaluation with care, respect, and cultural sensitivity.
With a Master’s in Forensic Psychology and years of experience working with individuals navigating complex legal and emotional systems, I bring both clinical expertise and a trauma-informed lens to my work. Whether you're seeking an evaluation for VAWA, hardship waivers, or other immigration-related matters, my goal is to provide a safe space where you feel seen and supported.
I’m here to help you tell your story with clarity and strength—because your voice matters.

I have provided psychological evaluations and therapy for hundreds of individuals struggling with a wide range of psychiatric disorders and challenges, including post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, domestic violence, substance abuse, familial separation, and first-episode psychosis interventions. My experience includes years of work in outpatient community mental health, as well as work at various correctional institutions where I provided psychological evaluations and therapy for incarcerated individuals.
Since 2024, I have been in private practice, providing psychological assessment and therapy for adults and adolescents. Recently, I have completed training to begin giving psychological evaluations for clients seeking extreme hardship waivers, asylum, and protection through the Violence Against Women Act. Over the years, I have worked effortlessly to reduce the stigma of mental in our communities.
