Seeing The Whole Picture
For many immigrants, obtaining legal status in the United States involves navigating a complex process while carrying the impacts of trauma, persecution, family separation, abuse, trafficking, or other significant hardships. These experiences are not always visible in legal filings alone.
Psychological evaluations help ensure that important parts of a person's story are fully understood and considered.
By providing objective clinical insight, these evaluations help legal teams communicate the mental and emotional impacts of a client's experiences in a way that can be clearly understood by immigration officials and decision-makers.
Ensuring Access For Those Who Need It Most
Research indicates that asylum cases that include a forensic psychological evaluation are nearly twice as likely to be approved as those without one.
In addition, these evaluations are significant in connecting applicants to critical resources and kickstarting the healing journey.
Despite their importance, affordable immigration-focused psychological evaluations have historically been difficult to access.
Rooted was founded to fill that gap.
