Your Roots, Your Growth, Your Journey Forward
Culturally-rooted therapy for first-generation Latino wellness
Who You Are
As a first-generation Latino professional, you've built the successful life your family dreamed of—but between career demands, cultural expectations, and family responsibilities, you're feeling pulled in every direction. The pressure of navigating two worlds while maintaining your sense of self is overwhelming. You're not alone in this journey, and together, we can help you find harmony between your heritage and your aspirations.
Who We Are
At Cultura Wellness Therapy, we understand the unique journey of first-generation Latinos, because it's our journey too. Founded in 2022 by our very own Araceli Vidales, a Latina therapist who couldn't find culturally-affirming mental health support in her 20s, she created what was missing: a space where your full identity is welcomed, where cultures meet without judgment, and where your experience is deeply understood—sin necesidad de sobre explicar.
