Fertility Evaluations


Your mental health holds significance. Here at La Jolla Psychology Center, we are committed to aiding women who are facing mental health conditions before, during, and after pregnancy. Infertility can impact various aspects of your life, including your relationships with others, your perspective on life, and your self-perception. Support from family and friends is crucial during this period, and counseling can offer further assistance if negative thoughts and emotions persist. Our clinicians collaborate closely with your healthcare provider to comprehensively understand your situation and work towards a resolution. Our offices deliver dedicated and experienced counseling for individuals grappling with fertility issues, and we are delighted to provide extra resources and support to our clients.


Empowering Your Fertility Journey: Our specialized fertility psychological counseling services extend compassionate support as you navigate the intricacies of IUI and IVF. With an emphasis on emotional well-being, we create a secure space to process emotions, develop coping strategies, and improve communication. Our objective is to empower you with the emotional resilience necessary throughout your fertility treatment, ensuring that you never feel isolated on this journey towards parenthood.

Immigration Evaluations

 

It is often that immigration laws require a psychological assessment or expert testimony by a mental health professional to move forth with immigration proceedings and place this burden of proof on the applicant or their beneficiary. Additionally, there are a number of reasons why a psychological evaluation can be helpful, even if required. These reports are very specific so it is essential to work with a professional well-versed in immigration services and at La Jolla Psychology Center, we have professionals specialized in exactly that.

​

Our offices specialize in a number of immigration proceedings and collaborate with immigration attorneys to best serve the client. Furthermore, to ensure you feel safe and comfortable during the evaluation process we are able to provide an assessment in English and in Spanish. Evaluations consist of one-on-one interviews and psychological tools and tests to assess your current symptoms. These results are then interpreted, drafted, and sent confidentially to your or to the attorney handling your case. For further questions, please contact us directly and inquire about our immigration services.

Emotional Support Animal Evaluations

At La Jolla Psychology Center we are pleased to offer Emotional Support Animal Assessments which take a holistic approach in assessing your particular mental health diagnosis and the benefits of having an animal that can alleviate some of those symptoms. Emotional support animals (typically dogs and cats but can also include other animals) have proven to be helpful for a range of physical, psychiatric, or intellectual disabilities. In order to be prescribed an emotional support animal, the person seeking such an animal must have a verifiable disability. To be afforded protection under United States federal law, a person must meet the federal definition of disability and must have a note from a medical professional or a licensed mental health counselor stating that the person has that disability and that the emotional support animal provides a benefit for the individual with the disability.  At La Jolla Psychology Center, we are very aware of the mental health benefits of pets including the many psychological benefits of animals in therapy. Our goal is to provide a smooth transition between diagnosing your condition, assessing the support of an animal companion, and providing a letter of qualification for the ESA.

~Our amazing therapist, Megan Williamson, AMFT has the most adorable French Bulldogs ("Frenchies")!

Frenchies really are the best ESA ,historically they were court jesters ,bred to bring smiles and spread joy. A Frenchie puppy can certainly shift the emotional temperature of the household!
