A Borderlands View on Latinos, Latin Americans, and Decolonization: Rethinking Mental Health

A Borderlands View on Latinos, Latin Americans, and Decolonization: Rethinking Mental Health

Pilar Hernandez-Wolfe, associate professor of counseling psychology, offers a borderlands perspective on mental health to assist those involved in Latino culture in understanding how the colonization of the Americas is still tied to current issues of migration, identity, trauma, and resistance. It addresses well-being through the integration of a decolonization paradigm, borderlands theory, and social justice approaches in couple and family therapy.
