As a Latino therapist, I have clinical experience working with teens and young adults facing various personal challenges and stressors.
Accepting new clients for 100% virtual (via video) therapy sessions! - Do you have a safe space to talk about how you actually feel? Life can often feel like an emotional rollercoaster, balancing tasks including school/college, work, social life, and other responsibilities. In the middle of this, our mental health can suffer within our family, friends, or relationships. The weight of anxiety, depression, or grief may let itself be known, making it harder to get through daily responsibilities.

There are times when we feel overwhelmed, trapped and life feels out of control. I want you to know that you are not alone. It's okay to feel anxiety, loneliness, sadness or worry at times. The more we run from it or avoid it, the worse it may become.

I want to help you untangle those messy moments to be able to bounce back from the chaos and change the way that you cope.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process between a therapist and a client. My goal is to create a safe environment where my clients can process thoughts and feelings to get a deeper and clearer understanding of underlying issues. The reality is that therapy is an uncomfortable and vulnerable process, but together we can work through difficult and often very private issues.

Hispanic and Latino Therapists
What makes a Hispanic and Latino therapist effective?
An effective Hispanic and Latino therapist can combine a culturally sensitive lens with proven therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). They may have an understanding of cultural attitudes to therapy, including potential stigma, and can help a client navigate those concerns. Some clients may also appreciate a therapist who is bilingual and is comfortable conversing with the client in both English and Spanish. Languages spoken are indicated on a therapist’s directory profile.
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
A culturally sensitive therapist is respectful and considerate of all groups, and may have specific expertise with individuals of a certain ethnicity. These considerations can help a client feel understood and can improve the therapeutic alliance. While some people think highlighting race and ethnicity could promote stereotypes and bias, most agree that knowledge about cultural differences enhances the alliance between therapist and client.
How can I recognize a therapist who has expertise working with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Successful therapy depends a great deal on the relationship between client and therapist. Start by asking the therapist about their overall approach to therapy. You may then wish to ask about the therapist’s educational background and any additional training in cultural sensitivity that they have undertaken.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience with Hispanic and Latino clients?
Ask a potential therapist whether they've worked with individuals who share this background or whether they’ve worked in these communities. If so, you may wish to ask them to elaborate on ways that they feel especially prepared to work with Hispanic and Latino clients. If they have not worked with such clients, they may know someone who has and be able to make a referral.
Who is included in Psychology Today’s directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists?
The directory of Hispanic and Latino therapists includes providers who have identified their ethnicity in their profiles. Psychology Today uses this information to assist clients in finding a therapist who can provide a cultural match. However, not all therapists choose to disclose their ethnicity in their profiles, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. When the number of therapists near you who identify as Hispanic and Latino is limited, the directory will also show therapists with comprehensive experience working with clients from relevant backgrounds.
