This edited volume focuses on the role of traditional or indigenous
healers, as well as the application of traditional healing
practices in contemporary counseling and therapeutic modalities
with Latina/o people. The book offers a broad coverage of important
topics, such as traditional healer's views of mental/psychological
health and well-being, the use of traditional healing techniques in
contemporary psychotherapy, and herbal remedies in psychiatric
practice. It also discusses common factors across traditional
healing methods and contemporary psychotherapies, the importance of
spirituality in counseling and everyday life, the application of
indigenous healing practices with Latina/o undergraduates,
indigenous techniques in working with perpetrators of domestic
violence, and religious healing systems and biomedical models. The
book is an important reference for anyone working within the
general field of mental health practice and those seeking to
understand culturally relevant practice with Latina/o populations.
