Serving Illinois | Bilingual | Trauma-Informed | Payment Plans Available
Navigating the U.S. immigration system is emotionally and mentally overwhelming, especially when your future, your family, or your safety is at stake. Sarah Taylor is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Founder of Yo Soy Ella, Inc., a mental health nonprofit based in Chicago with over 13 years of service to Latinx, immigrant, and underserved communities.

Through my private practice, I offer bilingual immigration psychological evaluations for individuals and families in Illinois, especially those in Chicago’s Latinx and immigrant communities. These evaluations are written with clinical integrity, cultural humility, and deep respect for your story. Whether you are seeking safety, stability, or a future with your loved ones, I’m here to walk beside you and help ensure your voice is heard.
🌿 Types of Immigration Evaluations Offered
I provide thorough clinical evaluations for the following immigration cases:
-
I-601 Waivers (Extreme Hardship)
-
VAWA (Violence Against Women Act)
-
U-Visa (for survivors of crimes)
-
T-Visa (for survivors of trafficking)

DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals)
Each evaluation highlights the emotional and psychological impact of your experience, and is written to support your legal team in presenting a clear, trauma-informed narrative to immigration officials.

I will review relevant documentation and records ahead of time. After our sessions, you will receive a comprehensive 8–10 page clinical report that includes:

All services are offered in English and Spanish.
