The integration of CBT, multicultural and feminist psychotherapies with Latinas.

Socorro was a 35-year-old Venezuelan woman who attempted suicide by overdose. The psychotherapeutic approach relied on identifying the social context, constructs, and working within Socorro’s cultural framework. Cultural issues related to immigration, acculturation, and culturally based gender issues were identified. The integration of cognitive–behavioral, feminist, and multicultural approaches helped to identify how migratory stressors oppressed her sense of self. Tenets of multiracial feminism were incorporated to better understand how her social context affected her perception of relationships, how she made choices and interpreted them. Future work with Latinas should address the development of models for treatment that fuse these perspectives. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)
