Specialized Assessments for Your Immigration Journey
At SherrWay Solutions, we understand that your legal status is the foundation of your future.
To provide the highest level of support, we have completed specialized Immigration Mental Health Evaluations Training with S. Badger Empowerment and Consulting Services, LLC, led by Simona Badger, LCSW.
We provide comprehensive, trauma-informed psychological evaluations that document the mental health impact of your unique circumstances, providing the clinical evidence necessary to strengthen your case.
Hardship Waivers (601 & 601-A)
These clinical evaluations focus on identifying and documenting the extreme psychological, emotional, and financial hardship that would be suffered by qualifying family members (U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents) if an applicant were denied residency or removed from the country. We analyze the long-term mental health implications to support your family’s need to remain together.
Cancellation of Removal
For clients currently in removal proceedings seeking relief from the immigration court, a professional psychological evaluation is a critical component. We provide detailed documentation that illustrates the devastating impact deportation would have on the client’s mental health and the overall well-being of their integrated family unit in the United States.
Asylum Evaluations
We provide a safe, confidential, and compassionate space for individuals who have been persecuted or have a well-founded fear of future persecution in their country of origin. Our evaluations document the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression resulting from past trauma, providing the court with the clinical reality of the dangers you face if forced to return.
VAWA (Violence Against Women Act)
We offer sensitive and confidential assessments for survivors—both women and men—who have suffered substantial harm, domestic violence, or extreme cruelty at the hands of a U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident spouse. Our reports help document the psychological toll of the abuse, empowering victims to seek safety and legal independence.
U-Visa Assessments
Specifically for victims of qualifying crimes within the United States who have assisted law enforcement in investigations. These evaluations focus on documenting the significant physical or mental abuse suffered as a result of the criminal activity, providing essential clinical support for your U-Visa application.
