On Latinx Liberation ❤️‍🩹 Latina therapist Vanessa Pezo (@the_traumatherapist) is a trauma therapist who approaches her work with an anti-oppressive lens. In her new book, “The Latinx Guide to Liberation: Healing from Historical, Generational, and Individual Trauma” she explores how various traumas have impacted us for generations. From colonialism to white supremacy to marianismo, she discusses how these have all affected the mental health of our community and why it’s important to recognize that pain. Throughout the book she ties in mental health practices and shares ways we can “feel our feelings” to begin to heal individually and collectively. #LatinaMentalHealth #MentalHealthMatters #LatinaTherapist #Latinas #Liberation #LetsTalkAboutMentalHealth #DestigmatizeMentalHealth #Marianismo #Colonialism #WhiteSupremacy #Burnout #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthBook #BIPOCMentalHealth
