Jenny 🤍 :
This is why culturally adaptive practices are so important! I have to go back and find the references, but when I was conducting research on culturally adaptive therapeutic modalities, a common through line was the importance of the use of “dichos” and native languages to create effective therapeutic processes! ☺️

You know what, you make a great point! If our childhood experiences were in a Spanish household, accessing that psyche would be easier having sessions in Spanish, or at least a bilingual approach. Hadn’t thought of it that way. Thank you for sharing.

I don’t know you but I am SO Proud of YOU! This brought tears 😭. I’m a first generation special education teacher and I always feel like our kids are being treated like a number instead of an individual. I wish there was more bilingualism education across all education and healthcare.

Cayena 🌺 :
It’s near impossible to find a practitioner that fits all the boxes. The age and gender of the practitioner also play a huge part in making it a great fit and then there’s insurance, of course. If you do find that unicorn practitioner, they would have to be in network.

I would just completely collapse if I had to recount my childhood in Spanish. Which probably means I need to, atm nothing scares me more

The only way to express my feelings honestly is in Spanish. For that same reason, I created a space to write together with other Latinas 😍
