Immigrants must endure some of the most difficult circumstances and challenges in pursuit of a better life. Despite the stresses they must endure, immigrants often have difficulty finding culturally-responsive mental health care because of differences in language, background, and understanding.

Luckily, there are licensed therapists who are specially trained to help heal the unique mental health issues that immigrants face. If you’re an immigrant dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, or any other mental health issue, or if you need a psychological evaluation for immigration, you could greatly benefit from an immigration therapist. Whether you are located in downtown Whittier, the suburbs of Whittier, other nearby places such as La Habra, Montebello, or anywhere else in California, Mental Health Match can help you easily find an experienced therapist or counselor who best meets your needs.
