“…In this manner, testimonios critique Western forms of knowledge to bring attention to the painful experiences and memories that highlight specific struggles of an individual's journey (Carrillo et al, 2018;Espino et al, 2012;Menchú, 1984).

The intention of testimonio work is to establish trust, build rapport, and facilitate a healing space based on equity and liberation (Aron, 1992;Cervantes et al, 2019;Comas-Díaz & Vazquez, 2018;Delgado Bernal et al, 2012;Latina Feminist Group, 2001). If the intention is not based on the etiology of testimonios or the intention moves away from the purpose of testimonio work, then psychologists risk perpetuating the institutional oppression our clients experience in other contexts (Cervantes et al, 2019).…”
