Las evaluaciones psicológicas de inmigración son herramientas clínicas que ayudan a fortalecer tu caso migratorio. Estas evaluaciones son realizadas por un profesional de salud mental capacitado y documentan el impacto emocional y psicológico de situaciones difíciles como trauma, abuso, separación familiar o persecución.

🔎 Tipos más comunes de evaluaciones:

1️⃣ VAWA – Para víctimas de violencia doméstica.
2️⃣ Visa U – Para víctimas de ciertos crímenes.
3️⃣ Visa T – Para víctimas de tráfico humano.
4️⃣ Asilo político – Por persecución en tu país de origen.
5️⃣ Cancelación de deportación – Para evitar la separación familiar.
6️⃣ Extreme Hardship (Dificultad Extrema) – Para demostrar el daño que sufriría un familiar si eres deportado.

🧠 ¿Por qué son importantes?
Una evaluación clínica bien documentada puede brindar evidencia clave al abogado y al juez sobre cómo tu salud mental ha sido afectada, o cómo tu ausencia afectaría a tus seres queridos. Puede marcar la diferencia entre una aprobación o una negación.

💬 Si tú o alguien que conoces está en medio de un proceso migratorio, ¡no estás solo/a! Estas evaluaciones pueden ser el primer paso hacia una nueva esperanza. 🌿

Therapists don't see crazy people, we see human beings experiencing life's circumstances, fears, pain, anxiety, dreams, and longings.

What's crazy is to have a problem and not seek the help needed.❤️

Moments of anxiety or deep distress experienced by Jesus:

1. Luke 22:44
"And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly; and His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground."
This vividly shows Jesus' emotional agony as He faced the impending crucifixion, illustrating the intensity of His distress.

2. Matthew 26:37-38 "And taking with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, He began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then He said to them, 'My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch with me.'"
Jesus openly expressed His deep sorrow and troubled heart, revealing the emotional weight He carried.

3. Mark 14:33-34
"And He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled. And He said to them, 'My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and watch.'"..This passage mirrors the one in Matthew and further underscores Jesus' profound inner turmoil before His arrest.

4. Hebrews 5:7
"In the days of His flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to Him who was able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His reverence."
This verse speaks of Jesus' intense prayers, possibly referring to the Garden of Gethsemane, showing His emotional vulnerability.

These passages highlight Jesus' humanity and His experience with emotions like anxiety, which many can relate to. Yet, His response to these emotions seeking God's strength and surrendering to His will serves as a model for us believers facing similar struggles.
