About this listen

In this episode, me senté a platicar con Maira M. Hernández — licensed therapist, CEO, y total chingona en el mundo de inmigración. Maira se especializa en mental health evaluations for Asylum Cases, Extreme Hardship, VAWA, U-Visa, T-Visa, y Cancellation of Removal — ayudando a nuestra gente compartir sus historias con fuerza y corazón.

We get into:

  • Cómo las evaluaciones psicológicas pueden ser clave en casos migratorios
  • The emotional toll these processes take — and cómo cuidar tu salud mental en el camino
  • La importancia de enseñar emotional tolerance (and what that even means)
  • Cómo ella encontró su voz como advocate, y lo que eso ha significado para su comunidad
  • Tips para profesionales latines en salud mental

Maira also shares personal stories, real talk on boundaries as a therapist, and cómo she stays grounded doing this deep, corazón-centered work.

Este episodio está lleno de healing, empowerment, y cultura. Si estás en este trabajo, si has pasado por el sistema, o simplemente quieres aprender cómo apoyar mejor — this one’s pa’ ti. ¡No te lo pierdas!
