Cannenta Foundation Inc

In 2020, Dr. Leti Cavazos saw a need for more culturally sensitive services to diverse individuals and marginalized groups. Non-English speaking individuals, specifically Spanish speaking, lacked a place that understood them and could help them heal while exploring their generational and cultural traumas.  There was a need for a place with ethnic perspectives around their mental health.  Cannenta Center for Healing and Empowerment was established in 2021. 

After realizing that a high percentage of our Spanish speaking clients were unable to afford our low costs of counseling, we set out to resolve that barrier. Founded in 2022, the goal of Cannenta Foundation is to help ensure mental health services are accessible and affordable in a manner that is inviting, understanding, and engaging. We provide counseling services in English, Spanish and sign-language. 

We strive to offer more culturally sensitive services to diverse individuals and marginalized groups. Spanish-speaking individuals and marginalized groups lack a safe place where someone understands their needs and can help them heal while exploring their generational and cultural traumas along with ethnic perspectives around their mental health.
