I understand the importance of honoring our culture and traditions that colors and shapes who we are

Hello, my name is Ramona Hickey, and I am a bilingual psychotherapist at Latinx Talk Therapy. As a Latinx individual, I understand the importance of honoring our culture and traditions that color and shape who we are. Unfortunately, the barriers and stigma towards mental health in the Latinx community are many, which prevents individuals from seeking the help that they so desperately need. These are some of the many reasons I decided to pursue a career in the mental health field. 

“The two most powerful words that someone can say when we are in a struggle is: Me too.” (Brene Brown). Acknowledging that we are in pain and are struggling is a process that requires time and space. Finding someone that can relate to your struggles can also be daunting. This is where I, as your therapist, will work to create a safe and welcoming environment that will allow us to walk through daily life stressors along with other challenges that you may be facing. Together we will seek to create a treatment plan that will enable you to develop healthy coping skills, grow, and become the best version of yourself. 

I have previous experience working with children, adults, and couples. I use a strengths-based approach, and the theoretical orientation that I subscribe to is an eclectic one, which means that I include multiple techniques based on my client’s experiences, preferences, and needs.
