What is Dando Luz?
Welcome to Dando Luz Wellness Collective.
Dando Luz is composed of Elisa and Sandra. We are hermanas both in blood and in spirit, who have traveled similar professional paths and who found a shared passion for supporting individuals’ growth and healing.
Our name “Dando Luz” literally translates to “give light,” and can also be interpreted to mean “to give birth.” This encapsulates how we would like to support you.
What do you want to "give birth" to or bring into existence?
Do you want to bring more light in the form of insight, self-awareness and clarity into your life? What areas of your life would you like to illuminate?
What would you like to uncover and nurture in your life?
These are big questions to answer. The process of therapy can help identify what this may look like for you.
Our Values
One pebble in the pond has a ripple effect. Others were here before us and others will be here after us. The question is, how do we brighten our light without dimming others? Just as we recognize the richness embedded in our cultural values, we also value, and recognize the enrichment that other cultures bring.
The values that support our practice are informed by the belief that we are interconnected and interdependent with those around us. We lean into our Mexican ancestry and cultural values of community. We have a deep appreciation for our roots and ancestors, while recognizing that we are tasked with deciding what path we take as individuals to heal ourselves, our family (chosen or biological) and by extension, our communities.
We use the practice of cultural humility to guide us. Our focus is centered on providing support to individuals who identify as BIPOC (Black Indigenous People of Color), however, we are open to collaborating with anyone who operates from the spirit of humility and compassion.
At Dando Luz, we view the process of therapy as collaborative and an equal partnership with you. This means that your direct life experiences, values, and insights are integral to developing a sense of direction towards the goal that you envision for yourself.
In other words, our role as your therapist is to support you in uncovering existing strengths, gifts and resources to enhance your growth. We support your process of self-cultivation with compassion to help you develop the tools and skills you need in an environment that is free of judgement.
