Introduction

Hello, my name is Dr. Teran, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California, specializing in immigration evaluations and psychotherapy. Long before I became a therapist, I sat across from one as the petitioner in a psychological evaluation for a hardship waiver on behalf of a loved one. That experience gave me a deep understanding of the emotional weight these evaluations carry. It’s this perspective that informs the empathy and care I bring to every immigration evaluation I conduct. In my clinical work, I have supported individuals and families navigating chronic medical conditions, with a recent focus on clients living with HIV/AIDS and members of the LGBTQ community. My therapeutic approach is rooted in attachment theory, offering clients a supportive and relational space to explore and heal. I am currently accepting new clients for psychological evaluations related to immigration cases, including hardship waivers, cancellation of removal, asylum, VAWA, U visas, and T visas. My evaluation process is comprehensive, compassionate, and conducted in a safe, welcoming environment.
