I became a therapist to help my community. I started working with children diagnosed with Autism over 10years ago, I became a registered behavior technician to further my knowledge to continue more in-depth work in community mental health using ABA. Regardless of the success I had as a technician I knew I wanted to do more so I obtained my Clinical Mental Health Counseling Masters Degree. I finally felt like I was doing the work I always dreamed of doing. Upon graduating I was immediate hired at the community mental health clinic where I worked with children, teens and families of diverse backgrounds.

After 20+ years as a couple's therapist (28 years in the mental health industry) those that know me describe me as many things. Causer of transformation, author (The Hijacked Brain) Energy Healer, teacher, leader and all around lover of life. But 10 years ago, I faced a reality that shook my foundation, caused me unspeakable sorrow, confusion and a sense of brokenness. I had to put to the test every clinical and spiritual principle in my toolbox. This is when I dove into energy work and discovered new ways to alchemize my clinical training and my personal experience into the tools and practices that I now share with my clients.

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.
