Mental Health and Trauma Assessments

Diagnostic assessment of mental health and trauma in asylum and immigration cases.

How we assess mental health and trauma

Many people in asylum and immigration proceedings have lived through persecution, torture, exploitation or displacement, leaving deep psychological effects.
The experts at Psychology and Psychiatry Experts provide diagnostic assessment of mental health conditions, personality and the impact of trauma, including post-traumatic stress disorder. We work with adults, children and unaccompanied minors, using interpreters and accounting for cultural context, and set out our findings with care for the Court or Tribunal, mindful of what a psychological assessment can and cannot establish.
