Leticia Nieto

I am a coach, psychotherapist, and educator specializing in liberation and equity, motivational patterning, and evolutionary creativity. My 2010 book, Beyond Inclusion, Beyond Empowerment: A Developmental Strategy to Liberate Everyone, is an accessible analysis of the dynamics of oppression and supremacy that offers readers ways to develop skills to promote social justice. With a narrative approach to my coaching, training and facilitation, I use appreciative inquiry, expressive techniques and embodied practices to involve participants deeply toward insight and change. Since 1980 I have successfully brought my skills to higher education and other learning communities, to service providers in helping agencies, to workplace teams, and to many community groups. In addition to degrees in clinical psychology and human development, I am skilled in Action Methods, including Psychodrama, Playback Theater and Theater of the Oppressed.
