Cultural Attunement
Honoring Your Unique Story
Growing up in a vibrant and diverse community, my worldview was shaped by family traditions, and shared values and connections with my community. These experiences challenged and strengthened my beliefs. My academic journey built on this foundation, showing me the power of cultural diversity—a perspective I bring into my Therapy today to assist me to hold your unique story.
What to Expect in Therapy
When you step into the collaborative space we create in therapy, I bring curiosity, understanding, and empathy to honor your unique lens—your values, traditions, and lived experiences.
-
Reflect on the influence of family culture across generations and its impact on your identity.
Explore the shifting tides of societal change and how it intersects with your cultural experiences.
Address the impact of community and social norms on your relationships and well-being.
Find new pathways to growth, healing, and resilience by honoring your unique identity and story.
Language and Connection
While I provide therapy in both Spanish and English, I also understand that language itself is deeply personal. For clients whose preferred language is different from mine, I welcome the use of a translator or other methods of effective communication.
Even when shared words are limited, connection and understanding can flourish through careful attention to nonverbal cues, emotional attunement, empathy, and presence. Together, we will create a space that feels authentic, respectful, and supportive of your cultural and linguistic needs.
