Abstract
Abstract I use testimonio to examine my journey to psychology. A Latin American first-person narrative, testimonio examines a person’s experience with oppression and resilience. Within this perspective, I explore the impact of discrimination, marginalization, and oppression on my professional development. First, I discuss how place affected my personal and professional identity development. Then, I reflect on how the development of gender, racial, and ethnocultural critical consciousness expanded my psychological vision. Next, I present how I practice mujerista (Latina womanist) leadership, comadre mentorship, and cultural healing. I conclude the testimonio with an examination of my spiritual social justice activism.
