Psychotherapy & Immigration Biopsychosocial Evaluations
Compassionate, culturally informed mental health services for adults, immigrants, and asylum seekers navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, and immigration proceedings.
​
Welcome
I’m Omar Ramirez, LCSW, a licensed psychotherapist serving clients across New York.
I provide individual psychotherapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and major life transitions. My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based therapies that help clients better understand their experiences while developing tools for meaningful change.
In addition to psychotherapy, I conduct forensic biopsychosocial evaluations for immigration proceedings, working with individuals and immigration attorneys to document the psychological impact of trauma, hardship, and family separation. When requested by counsel, I also provide expert testimony in immigration court to support the findings of my evaluations.
Psychotherapy
