Discrimination Evaluations
At Respond and Restore Mental Health, we offer professional mental health evaluations for individuals experiencing the emotional impact of discrimination in the workplace, educational institutions, or public settings. Discrimination based on race, gender, age, disability, or other protected categories can lead to significant psychological distress, including anxiety, depression, and trauma-related symptoms. According to the American Psychological Association, chronic exposure to discrimination can severely affect mental health and overall well-being, especially when compounded by systemic barriers and social inequities.
What Our Discrimination Evaluation Services Include:
- Comprehensive Mental Health Assessment: A detailed clinical evaluation to identify symptoms related to discrimination, such as emotional distress, hypervigilance, or diminished self-esteem.
- Psychological Documentation: Written reports that may support legal, workplace, or educational claims, prepared in accordance with professional ethical standards.
- Trauma-Informed Care Approach: Evaluations conducted with sensitivity to past or ongoing emotional harm and power imbalances.
- Client Advocacy & Referrals: Recommendations for therapeutic services, legal resources, or accommodations as appropriate.
- Culturally Competent Providers: Clinicians trained in recognizing implicit bias, intersectionality, and the broader mental health effects of systemic oppression.
Whether you're facing discrimination at work, in housing, education, or public services, we are here to listen, validate, and support your right to mental health justice. Our evaluations aim to both document and empower — giving voice to your experience and helping you move toward healing and resolution.
