How much time do you want for your progress? The urgency for decoloniality in psychology persists
While it is important to recognize our collective advancements as a field, a point we emphasized in our article, despite contrary assertions by Cobb et al. (2026), we must also resist complacency. It is important to critically question what we label as progress, resist celebrating achievements prematurely, and never forget history. This vigilance is especially important now, as prior advances are being undermined or reversed in both the field of …
Racism-conscious reflexivity in qualitative research
The fierce ethical urgency of decoloniality in therapy
Disentangling psychology from the grip of methods, values, ways of knowing, and power structures considered normative within Western societies, all of which have been used to justify dominance and coloniality, presents a complex challenge and an ethical imperative. Psychology must rise to this challenge. This article invites readers to reflect on how coloniality influences the lives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color in the United States a…
Dr. Janet E. Helms
Dr. Janet E. Helms's use of psychological science to engage the field of psychology in radical progressive debates about race and identity is unprecedented. Her scholarship transformed prevailing paradigms in identity development theory and cognitive ability testing in psychology, to name a few. However, mainstream psychology often ignores, dismisses, and minimizes the importance of Dr. Helms's scientific contributions. Despite the numerous syste…
Anti-Colonial Futures
Indigenous Latina women experience simultaneous forms of oppression, including racism, sexism, and colonialism, which we describe as racial-gendered colonialism. To promote epistemic diversity in responding to racial-gendered colonialism in psychotherapy, we propose three practical clinical guidance grounded in (a) Maya cosmology and (b) the Intersectionality Awakening Model of Womanista Treatment Approach (I AM Womanista) developed by Chavez-Due…
Radical hope in revolting times
Growing research supports the link between individual expressions of hope and psychological well‐being. In this paper, we draw on psychological theories of hope, racial and ethnic studies, and the literature on radical healing to propose a framework of radical hope. Although the proposed multidimensional framework integrates cultural practices of People of Color in the United States, it is flexible enough to be adapted to other contexts. The pape…
Intersectionality Awakening Model of Womanista
A transnational feminism framework, which aims to reshape the politics surrounding ideologies of feminism by decentering White Women as the model of womanhood, is used to explicitly center the role of gendered-racism in the lives of Latinas and how they have survived their subjugation throughout history. A transnational treatment approach titled, Intersectionality Awakening Model of Womanista (I AM Womanista) is presented to assist psychotherapis…
The fallacy of a raceless Latinidad
Healing ethno-racial trauma in Latinx immigrant communities
Latinx immigrants living in the United States often experience the negative effects of systemic oppression, which may lead to psychological distress, including ethno-racial trauma. We define ethno-racial trauma as the individual and/or collective psychological distress and fear of danger that results from experiencing or witnessing discrimination, threats of harm, violence, and intimidation directed at ethno-racial minority groups. This form of t…
Toward a Psychological Framework of Radical Healing in Communities of Color
Advancing beyond individual-level approaches to coping with racial trauma, we introduce a new psychological framework of radical healing for People of Color and Indigenous individuals (POCI) in the United States. We begin by providing a context of race and racism in the United States and its consequences for the overall well-being of POCI. We build on existing frameworks rooted in social justice education and activism and describe a form of heali…
Acculturation Profiles of Central Florida Puerto Ricans
Evaluating sociocultural factors that may influence acculturation strategies rather than assuming homogeneity among different Latinx ethnic groups is important. A latent profile analysis with covariates was used to identify acculturation profiles in a sample of first-generation Central Florida Puerto Ricans ( N = 381) along bidimensional behavioral, values, and ethnic identity indicators. We examined whether three contextual covariates including …
Cultural Foundations and Interventions in Latino/a Mental Health
Advancing work to effectively study, understand, and serve the fastest growing U.S. ethnic minority population, this volume explicitly emphasizes the racial and ethnic diversity within this heterogeneous cultural group. The focus is on the complex historical roots of contemporary Latino/as, their diversity in skin-color and physiognomy, racial identity, ethnic identity, gender differences, immigration patterns, and acculturation. The work highlig…
Cultural Foundations and Interventions in Latino/a Mental Health
Skin-Color Prejudice and Within-Group Racial Discrimination
The psychological literature on colorism, a form of within-group racial discrimination, is sparse. In an effort to contribute to this understudied area and highlight its significance, a concise and selective review of the history of colorism in Latin America is provided. Specifically, three historical eras (i.e., conquest, colonization, and post-colonization) are summarized. In each era, the establishment of racial and ethnic stratification and i…
Multicultural Initiatives Across Educational Contexts in Psychology
Educational context plays a role in promoting and maintaining multicultural competence. Whereas in the past decade psychology has considered the impact of multiculturalism in educational training; however, less attention has been paid to the institutional contexts that house these efforts. In this paper, four professional psychologists with expertise in multicultural education enumerate the barriers they encountered as they attempted to establish…
