Our Core Purpose
For All Counseling is a nonprofit organization founded on the belief that systemic barriers should not restrict access to essential mental health support for individuals navigating complex legal processes. Our mission is to ensure every person’s complete story—including the impact of past trauma, persecution, and hardship—is thoughtfully and objectively considered. We are guided by the core values of Integrity, Equity, and Compassion, prioritizing a trauma-informed approach in every interaction.
We specialize in conducting objective, evidence-based mental health evaluations (psychosocial assessments) exclusively for immigration and asylum cases across Nebraska and Iowa.

What is an Immigration Evaluation?
An immigration evaluation is a specialized psychosocial assessment designed to provide evidence for immigration cases and answer specific psycho-legal questions. It goes beyond a mental health assessment, exploring the complex interaction of factors that influence an individual’s well-being and factors specific to immigration cases. Our work helps ensure that mental health factors are acknowledged, providing legal professionals with important insights necessary to present a comprehensive understanding of a client’s situation.
