- When asked about her psychological services, Dr. Vazquez says: “Although there are many culturally competent professionals who are also highly qualified to help, I have dedicated my professional life to evaluations, treatment, research, and training. This diverse combination enables me to:
- Help Latinas gain their voices by becoming aware of the connections between their lives and their gendered, cultural, social and political circumstances.
- Tell which behaviors are normal and functional in the Latino culture and which are not
- understand the cultural origins of parenting skills and not automatically see a parent’s concern as over-involvement or intrusiveness
- Act as a cultural broker to help children/families, couples and other important relationships maintain a balanced cultural position, if needed, understand psychological problems and resolve them.”
Despite her Latin-American expertise, since 1979, Dr. Vazquez has vast experience helping people from all backgrounds.
- People born in North America
- Caucasians
- People of color
- Immigrants from many countries
Dr. Vazquez has increased her private practice since reducing her time at Bellevue Hospital.
