If you are thinking or feeling any of the following ways, working with a Latin/Hispanic might be right for you:
- Feeling like you’re an outsider to your own culture
- Thinking that you can never be Hispanic or Latin enough
- Feeling conflicting feelings about your place in your family’s cultural experience
- Thinking that your friends can’t understand certain aspects of your identity
- Feeling that parts of the culture you were brought up with clash with your values today
If you’re seeking a therapist with a similar background to you who is committed to cultural humility, embracing an anti-racist, anti-colonial, and overall leftist perspective to create an environment for profound exploration, you’ve come to the right place. Working with a therapist whose life experiences mirror your own can you feel more safe and understood while working though your issues. I will provide you a supportive space to explore every aspect of identity and examine the societal structures that may cause friction in your life.
My approach is highly collaborative and client-focused, working psychodynamically while drawing from components of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). You can anticipate setting goals and exploring actionable steps you can take to help you lead a satisfying life. I aspire to be the best therapist I can be for you, so I am always open to feedback and suggests around what you think might work best for.
Through our work together, I will help you heal from whatever issues you are bringing to therapy. If this sounds of interest to you, please fill schedule a consultation with me today.
