Latina Psychologists : Thriving in the Cultural Borderlands Paperback
Edited by Lillian (George Washington University, District of Columbia, USA) Comas-Diaz, Carmen Inoa (Columbia University, New York, USA) Vazquez
Description
In this book, twelve eminent Latina Psychologists illustrate how they practice gender- and culture-sensitive psychotherapy, counseling, research, pedagogy, social justice, and mentoring.
They share how they create their own path in the midst of oppression - by becoming aware of the connection between their lives and their gendered, cultural, social, and political circumstances - and how they liberate themselves and those who seek their psychological services.
Based on lived experiences, they reveal how they integrate a borderlands theory, a testimonio method, and an embodiment analysis into a Latina Feminist Psychology.
More importantly, these Latina Psychologists offer easy-to-follow advice to help readers thrive while living in the cultural borderlands.
