  • Veteran Mental Health Claim-Support Consultation

    Veteran Mental Health Evaluation

    $500 Flat Rate - For VA Disability Claims

    Available to veterans located in Alaska, Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Michigan, and New Mexico.

    I provide focused, one-time psychological evaluations for veterans seeking professional documentation of current mental-health symptoms and their possible relationship to military service.

    The goal is to determine whether a current psychological condition is clinically supported, document its functional impact and evaluate whether the veteran's current presentation is consistent with the reported onset or worsening of symptoms during military service.

    The resulting psychological report may be submitted to the Department of Veterans Affairs as private medical evidence in support of a disability claim or request for further VA evaluation.

    The Evaluation Includes

    • Structured clinical interview

    • Current symptoms and functional impairment

    • Relevant military and mental-health history

    • Symptom onset and progression

    • Mental-status examination

    • Brief psychological screening measures when appropriate

    • Diagnostic impressions when clinically supported

    • Clinical discussion of the relationship between the current presentation and the veteran's reported military history

    • Concise written psychological report

    Important Limitations

    This is a focused, interview-based psychological evaluation. It does not include comprehensive review of VA claims files, service-treatment records, or extensive medical records.

    Historical information that has not been independently verified will be clearly identified as reported by the veteran.

    This service is not a VA Compensation & Pension examination, DBQ, disability-rating determination, or comprehensive forensic nexus evaluation.

    The evaluation does not guarantee service connection, benefits, or a VA examination. The Department of Veterans Affairs independently determines whether additional examination or medical opinion is necessary.
