Hi, I’m Leslie Farías Sánchez, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and founder of Nueva Vida Therapy. I specialize in providing compassionate, trauma-informed immigration evaluations for individuals and families navigating the legal immigration process.

As the daughter of immigrants, this work is deeply personal to me. I offer mental health evaluations for Hardship Waivers (I-601/I-601A), VAWA, U Visa, and T Visa. and I’ve had the honor of supporting countless clients in sharing their stories in a clinically sound, culturally sensitive, and USCIS-accepted format.

I’m licensed in California, Oregon, and Arizona, and I offer evaluations in both English and Spanish, with virtual availability to accommodate clients across all three states.

At Nueva Vida Therapy, our goal is to deliver evaluations that not only meet legal standards but also humanize and honor each client's lived experience.

If you’re an immigration attorney looking for a reliable mental health evaluator to support your cases, I’d love to connect and collaborate.
