Abstract
A transnational feminism framework, which aims to reshape the politics surrounding ideologies of feminism by decentering White Women as the model of womanhood, is used to explicitly center the role of gendered-racism in the lives of Latinas and how they have survived their subjugation throughout history. A transnational treatment approach titled, Intersectionality Awakening Model of Womanista (I AM Womanista) is presented to assist psychotherapists working with Latinas to deliver interventions rooted in a gendered-racial-culturally responsive praxis. Overall, the I AM Womanista framework aims to disrupt the dominant feminist ethos by honoring the collective narratives of Indigenous and Black Latina women who actively resisted and survived attacks on their humanity from the pre-colonial period to the present. Practical clinical guidance is offered.
