At Mindgration, we understand that the journey towards integrating our cultural and ethnic identity in a systematically oppressing system can be challenging. Through our charlas (conversations) series, our guests share their stories as they navigate life with the extra layers of migration, assimilation, discrimination and historical trauma. Our hope is that something from their journeys resonates with you & inspires you to continue shedding inherited beliefs that helped you survive but may no longer serve you.

The Indescribable Feeling of Finding the “Right” Therapist
This is charla numero Seis of season Uno on how to find the "right therapist". Our guest today shares that the right therapist for him turned out to be someone with whom he had nothing in common! His therapist was different from him in every single way, including the therapist’s ethnic identity, which he initially thought would have been one of the most important characteristics when he started the search. Join him as he encourages listeners to get out there and start their life's journey because, although hard to describe in words, whatever you are dealing with you don't have to go through it alone.

It's Worth The Risk
This is Charla (conversation) Número Cuatro of a six-part series on how to find the "right" therapist. My guest for this charla, Cristal, did not look for her first therapist based on too many characteristics but rather by understanding that it was time to seek support. From comparing her search for therapists to searching for a gynecologist to the very real aspects of accessibility and trust in the health care system, Cristal takes us on a journey of self-compassion as we navigate the uncertain waters of getting the help that we each uniquely need.

Finding A Therapist As An Immigrant
This is Charla (conversation) Número Tres of a six-part series on how to find the "right" therapist. Our guest today says she "needed more" than a therapist that just checked off boxes for symptoms. If life is full of complexities, as an immigrant there are layers upon layers: a new language, new systems, different ways to navigate the unknown, to name a few. Our hope is that as you listen to Carla you can look deep into your own layering and feel seen and validated in your own journey.
