Culturally affirming and liberatory mental health theories and approaches with Latine/x clients and communities

Abstract

This special issue focuses on culturally affirming and liberatory mental health theories and approaches with Latine/x clients and their respective communities. Grounded in the cultural traditions of Latine/x communities, the articles in this special issue move beyond discussing the challenges Latine/x clients face in accessing mental health services to providing practical guidance for addressing oppressive systems. As a resurgent effort to dismantle the long‐standing effects of racism on the Latine/x community, this special issue also offers a strength‐based model of radical healing.
