What Is an Asylum Psychological Evaluation?
An Asylum Psychological Evaluation is a comprehensive psychological assessment conducted by a licensed mental health professional. It helps to document the emotional and psychological hardship that asylum seekers experience due to past persecution, abuse, or fear of future harm. This evaluation plays a critical role in proving that the applicant qualifies for asylum based on emotional distress and the severity of their fear.
The evaluation includes:
Clinical interviews with the applicant to understand their personal history, trauma, and current mental state
Psychological testing to assess anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other mental health concerns related to trauma
A detailed written report that outlines the findings and provides expert testimony that can be submitted to immigration courts and USCIS
Why Do You Need an Asylum Psychological Evaluation?
A psychological evaluation for asylum provides several key benefits:
Proving the Emotional Impact of Persecution: Many asylum cases rely on documenting the psychological distress caused by past violence, abuse, or trauma. Our evaluations help to clearly show the psychological suffering resulting from persecution.
Meeting Legal Requirements: Asylum applications require compelling evidence that the applicant faces a well-founded fear of future harm. Our court-ready reports help meet the strict legal standards set by USCIS and immigration courts.
Strengthening Your Asylum Case: A psychological evaluation is a vital piece of evidence that can significantly strengthen your asylum claim, improving your chances of a successful outcome.

The Evaluation Process for Asylum Seekers
Our Asylum Psychological Evaluation process is simple, compassionate, and designed to provide you with the support you need during this challenging time.
1. Initial Consultation
The first step in the process is a confidential consultation where we gather background information about your asylum case, the trauma you’ve faced, and how it affects your emotional and psychological well-being. This can be conducted in person at our Garden City, NY office or via secure telehealth.
2. Psychological Testing
After the initial interview, we conduct standardized psychological assessments to identify trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges related to your past experiences. This helps quantify the psychological distress you're experiencing.
3. Detailed Report
After completing the assessment, we prepare a comprehensive report that summarizes the findings and provides an expert opinion on the emotional and psychological hardships you face. The report will be tailored to meet USCIS and immigration court standards and will be submitted as part of your asylum application.
