Depth Psychology: Empowering Multicultural Women in the Wider World<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

As a Latina and a self-made media mogul who has produced hundreds of television shows, headed a TV network, and generated a significant amount of income, Nely Gal\u00e1n ironically felt an odd sense of relief when the economy crashed in 2008, bringing many of her projects to a halt. In hindsight, Gal\u00e1n believes she had been feeling incongruent in her career because she was in a field where much of the focus was on achieving success, and where individuals were not valued for being their authentic selves.<\/p>\n

By that point in her life, she had been through psychotherapy and understood how powerful it could be. After going back to school to complete a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis on depth psychology, Gal\u00e1n realized the extent to which depth psychology provides a powerful lens for introspection and for examining ideas about diversity.<\/p>\n

In her own Latino culture, Gal\u00e1n recognized that women often don\u2019t engage in psychotherapy because there is stigma attached. Because of her connections, Gal\u00e1n realized she had the capacity to gather women from many different cultures together in a safe setting where they could tell their stories, many of which included experiences with psychotherapy. By founding the \u201cAdelante Movement,\u201d a series of free events that she hosted all over the U.S., Gal\u00e1n opened the door for more multicultural women to speak freely about feeling alone and needing help. \u201cAdelante,\u201d in Spanish, means \u201cmove forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

The data that Gal\u00e1n collected from those conversations ultimately formed the basis of her New York Times best-selling book,\u00a0Self Made: Becoming Empowered, Self Reliant, and Rich in Every Way<\/em>. The book offers advice, grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy, about finding happiness in many aspects of life\u2014not just economically, but also in areas like family, love, and spirituality.<\/p>\n

Gal\u00e1n is on a powerful journey to bring depth psychological applications to the wider world and to provide important and innovative opportunities for transformation in individual, group, and community work.\u00a0Listen to the full audio interview or read my detailed summary article of the interview at http:\/\/www.pacificapost.com\/empowering-multicultural-women-in-the-world<\/a><\/p>\n
