Individual, Family, and Group Therapy
Many community members who seek support from LPA have experienced complicated pre- and post-migration challenges. While appreciating these struggles, LPA’s bilingual clinicians also emphasize the strength and resources that each individual brings to therapy.
In LPA’s therapeutic work, we rely on our collective years of experience working with the transnational immigrant community and the wisdom that community members bring to the therapeutic process. In this way, our therapy is innovative and culturally humble. We strive to be accessible, flexible, and deeply appreciative of the complex lived experiences of our community members.
LPA offers individual, family, and group therapy options, depending on the particular needs of individual community members. For example, LPA has special programming that provides individual mental health counseling to immigrant workers, and family therapy sessions if and when their families are able to reunify with them through and adjustment of immigration status. LPA also believes that positive mental health outcomes are more likely when the whole of an individual are supported. Thus, LPA takes on a therapeutic case management approach to therapy. LPA staff are trained on how to provide and facilitate certain case management services, an an effort to support the holistic mental and emotional well being of the immigrant community members we serve.
Thanks to the hard work of volunteers, interns-in-training, staff, robust community partnerships, and the generous support of our funders and donors, LPA is committed to providing counseling services and supports at no cost to our community members.
