    Hablemos New Years Resolutions and Intentions

    In this episode of Latinas Talkin Therapy, we’re talking about the pressure of New Year’s resolutions vs. the gentler (and more sustainable) practice of setting intentions—especially in a time when so much is happening around us and impacting people on a very real level. As Latina therapists, we’re holding space for clients who are navigating uncertainty, stress, grief, burnout, and collective overwhelm—while still being told to “set goals” and “start fresh.” We share how we talk about goal-setting with our clients in a way that’s trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and rooted in compassion rather than productivity. We also reflect on how we’re approaching 2026, including our own intentions for the year—what we’re prioritizing, what we’re releasing, and how we’re choosing sustainability over hustle during a time that asks for a lot of us. If you’re feeling pressure to have it all figured out by January, or wondering how to move forward when the world feels heavy, this conversation is for you 🤍 Make sure to follow us on our socials!

    Catching up and Chismeando with LTT

    In this episode, we’re doing a much-needed catch-up and celebrating the growth of Latinas Talkin’ Therapy offline🎙️✨ We talk about our small hiatus, what it’s been like to see this podcast grow into a real comunidad, and how it’s all been landing for us -- gratitude, disbelief, and everything in between. We’re also sharing personal life updates, navigating work, relationships, mental health, and the seasons of life that don’t always make it online. It’s part reflection, part chisme, and very much giving two Latinas catching up on the couch vibes ☕️💛So grab your cafecito and join us on this wild ride!

  3. Seeing Your Growth: Why Highlighting Client Progress Matters

    Seeing Your Growth: Why Highlighting Client Progress Matters

    In this episode of Latinas Talkin’ Therapy, we dive into the importance of recognizing and reflecting back client progress in the therapy room. As therapists, we often witness powerful shifts—big and small—that our clients may overlook or minimize. We explore why clients can be hesitant to receive this feedback, how cultural and personal narratives can make progress feel invisible, and ways to gently affirm growth without invalidating the client's current emotional experience. Whether you're a clinician or someone in therapy, this conversation is a reminder that healing doesn’t always look the way we expect—and that progress deserves to be honored.

  4. Why Is It So Hard to Give & Receive Compliments?

    Why Is It So Hard to Give & Receive Compliments?

    In this episode of Latinas Talkin’ Therapy, we get real about something that seems small but runs deep—compliments. Why does it feel uncomfortable to receive one? Why do we hesitate to give them? We explore how many of us grew up in environments where affirming words were rare, where humility was expected, and where comparison often replaced encouragement. We unpack the cultural roots of this dynamic, the impact it has on our self-worth, and how the feeling of not being “enough” shows up in our lives. Most importantly, we talk about how practicing self-compassion can open the door to grace—for ourselves and others—and help us learn to celebrate each other out loud. It’s time we unlearn the silence and start giving ourselves and our hermanas the love we deserve. 💜 If you want to learn more about us, follow us on our socials!
