Dr. Vazquez's Private Practice
Dr. Vazquez has a private practice in

culturally mixed marriages)
- psychological examinations for
- children and adolescents

evaluations

issues
- supervision for mental health
cultural services
- court testimony
- assessment in immigration matters
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:
- 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.
"Let me know whenever I can help."
