My name is Diana Mena. She/her/ella. I am a first generation Nicaraguan American, a bilingual (Spanish/English) and bicultural, Woman of Color. I come from a radical and revolutionary lineage. I am an oldest daughter. I am a mother to a fierce daughter and a gentle son. I am rooted in Seattle,Washington and in the motherland, Nicaragua (Nicanahuac o Nic-atl-nahuac).  

I am a licensed clinical activist and social justice worker. I completed a Bachelors in Sociology from Seattle University and a Masters in Social Work from the University of Washington. I was trained at Harborview Center for Sexual Assault and Traumatic Stress.

I have over 13 years experience working with nonprofit agencies and community mental health clinics providing case management and therapy for low income, marginalized populations, and communities of color. I am an Ethnic Minority Mental Health Specialist for the Hispanic Population (EMMHS).

I started my private practice in 2015 where I have practiced as a trauma therapist. 

I offer a wholistic and radical approach to medicina; reclaiming ancestral practices and ritual. I guide people who want to heal themselves and their lineage for the benefit of the collective. I make healing accessible to all, while naming white supremacist capitalist patriarchy (bell hooks), and imagining a world outside of oppressive systems. 

As a politicized healer I am in a continual process of decolonizing myself and my praxis. 

I am a consultant, educator, presenter, and supervisor who centers liberation and healing.  

I am an embodied entrepreneur, redefining what success, sustainability and financial freedom look like within and outside of capitalism. I am reclaiming our birthright of abundance and mentoring others in this process. 

In 2018, I was honored with the Washington State Society's Clinical Social Worker Award for my work incorporating social justice into clinical practice.

In 2024, I became certified in Financial Social Work. This topic is now the focus of my clinical work. Check out my listing on the FSW Directory.
