Immigration cases often depend on showing how events, trauma or separation have affected a person's mental health. Chantal provides immigration psychosocial evaluations and mental health impact reports, within her scope of competence, written in clear language for attorneys and decision makers.

As a licensed mental health counselor with diagnostic privilege (LMHC‑D), she conducts the clinical interview and standardized screening, and documents her findings and treatment recommendations. Evaluations are done by secure video, and her ability to work in French and Mina helps many clients tell their story in their own language.

How we'll work

  • Clinical interview and standardized screening measures
  • Written psychosocial evaluation or mental health impact report
  • Treatment recommendations, and ongoing therapy if needed

Insurance & cost

Immigration evaluations and reports are self-pay, because they are prepared for legal purposes. Chantal confirms the fee and timeline with you, or with your attorney, before scheduling. Ongoing therapy afterwards can be billed to insurance.
