Presenter

Lily Jiménez Dabdoub (she/her) is a multi-ethnic person who self-identifies as Latina. She was born and raised in Mexico City. She is dedicated to decolonizing therapy through critical reflections and constantly learning and (re)learning ancestral healing practices. Lily informs her therapeutic practice by humanistic and systemic approaches, recognizing that this Western psychological knowledge is deeply intertwined and decontextualized from indigenous knowledge. As a racialized immigrant woman, she has experienced and endured the hardship of oppressive racism and social injustice. Consequently, she is empathic and an advocate for Social Justice matters. As an art therapist, she specializes in working with racialized folks and neurodivergent individuals, particularly children and adults. She started an ongoing support group “Latinielxs Women’s Circle”. Lily continues to explore healing practices by fostering community engagement and addressing historical oppression. As part of the Climate-Informed Counsellors Chapter board from the CCPA, she is working with these climate-aware counselors to sensibilize and disseminate climate-informed therapeutic practices. Reflecting on her life journey and the challenges she has faced, Lily realized that beyond grappling with mild dyslexia and dyscalculia, she faced challenges associated with "classic" ADHD and autistic traits. Recently diagnosed, she is embracing and roller-coasting with her neurodivergent identity.

Recognizing her position as a settler on colonized lands in Tio'tia:ke under the custody of the Kanien'kéha:ka Nation, Lily is committed to learning, supporting, and sharing decolonized knowledge as an art therapist. Advocating for flourishing anti-oppressive wellness, she maintains a critical perspective on research from predominantly Global North leading countries. As a first-generation immigrant to Canada, Lily seeks personal betterment and supports others in states of vulnerability. Her diverse professional background includes working as a neuroaesthetics and music cognition researcher and artist showcasing mostly her photographic artwork.
