This one-of-a-kind guide explores the impact of systematic oppression, colonisation, generational trauma, and individual trauma for people in the Latinx community. It guides the reader on a journey of understanding, healing, and empowerment for them and their communities, and includes reflective questions and healing exercises.
"Let us heal together. But first I invite you to take a breath."

The impact of colonialism, generational trauma, and individual trauma is often disregarded in the Latinx community. This pioneering guide addresses this trauma and takes Latinx readers on a journey of healing and liberation.. It explores what it means to have been systematically oppressed, how it impacts us, and how to change it. In doing so, this book challenges stereotypes, unravels the shame-based narratives around Latinx mental health, and refocuses the conversation around cultural empowerment, awareness, and transformation.

Each chapter is enriched with historically informed psychoeducation regarding the impact of various types of trauma on Latinx mental health. It also includes reflection questions and healing exercises to help readers process how they, their families, and communities have been impacted.

Accessible and interactive, this is an invaluable resource for Latinx people and mental health professionals working within the Latinx community.

Vanessa Pezo, LCSW is a Latina trauma therapist based in Long Beach, CA. She works from an anti-oppressive lens using EMDR, Narrative Exposure, and culturally affirming practices to help diverse survivors of trauma find healing and recovery.
