Reconnecting to Indigenous Ways of Being

People of Color in Psychology

Indigenous cultures hold a profound and intricate understanding of healing and wellness, deeply intertwined with their connection to community, spirituality, and the natural world. For psychologists seeking deeper meaning in their practice and exploring alternative approaches to client connection, there is wisdom passed down through generations of indigenous knowledge. Listen to our episode with Dr. Zamarripa as we explore some of the practices and ideas and how to bring them into psychotherapy practice. Dr. Zamarripa is also the president of the National Latinx Psychological Association, an enriching community connecting Latinx psychologists and allies in the practice of psychology.
