Immigration Evaluations
Inma writes psychological evaluations for immigration purposes and is knowledgeable of the Istanbul Protocol, a manual on the effective investigation and documentation of torture, and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
​
She completed the training on Medical and Psychological Evaluation and Documentation of Torture at Georgetown University School of Medicine with the Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) and their affiliation with TASSC (Torture Abolition and Survivors Support Coalition). She was mentored by attorneys from Georgetown University School of Law.
​
The overall goal of the psychological evaluation is to assess the degree of consistency between an individual’s account of abuse and the psychological findings observed during the evaluation. ​
​
Inma can conduct the interviews in English and Spanish. She takes into account the country of origin, the culture, and the political climate where the abuse took place as she writes these evaluations.
​
Inma can complete psychological evaluations within 7-10 days from the initial interview, which usually lasts 4-8 hours. Evaluations can be done in person or via secure teleconference call.
​
Please contact Inma for details on how to prepare for the interview.
