Chicanx Psychology is “Gente Psychology”

We believe in building a community focused on wellness and strengths of the Chicana/o/x community through the lens of Chicana/o/x Psychology.

We believe that through conversations about community struggles along with healthy development of self-image and positive cultural identity, we may find the “answer” to many struggles held within our cultural legacy.
