Debbie Gonzalez is a licensed mental health therapist in Texas that helps Latinx adolescents and adults break generational trauma and address cultural factors that prevent individuals from receiving appropriate mental health care. As a Latinx therapist, I understand how our culture perceives and feels about mental health. Being told it isn’t that bad, to get over it, or that it's something we don’t talk about are common phrases generationally taught. We shouldn’t blame our parents or guardians for the mindset that was taught to them about mental health; however, you can rewrite your history moving forward. Throughout the course of therapy, we will connect culture and mental health issues, such as anxiety, depression, stress, grief, or difficult life events, and learn how to overcome them through mindfulness techniques, CBT, and solution-focused strategies.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Debbie will treat everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion throughout their counseling journey and will work with her clients to create a treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a Latinx therapist, Debbie understands the barriers to receiving mental health treatment due to cultural and familial factors and will help her clients break generational trauma to achieve emotional and mental stability.
