Latinos represent our nation’s largest and fastest growing ethnic group—yet there exists a troubling shortage of culturally competent mental health professionals prepared to meet those needs. Latino mental health professionals seek to understand the cultural factors that influence Latino/as’ mental health and the most culturally appropriate approaches for addressing Latino mental health challenges. They work in a wide range of settings, providing individual, family, or group psychotherapy, leading grassroots education and outreach programs, serving as program managers or senior administrators at community-based agencies, and more.
