To create culturally competent healthcare practices, it is essential to expand existing definitions of healthcare and services provision models to include a wide range of life experiences. The importance of this approach has led Dr. Linda Mona’s career as a clinical psychologist down the path of improving the lives of people living with chronic health conditions/disability and the importance of intimacy and sexual health within life satisfaction. Clearly not shy to difficult dialogues, Dr. Mona believes that addressing such topics within the context of healthcare is imperative to improved health behavior adherence and longevity. As a proud self-identified disabled woman, wife, mother, and psychologist, she has worked tirelessly on challenging traditional medical notions of disability and reframing this life experience from a multicultural lens. This unique worldview has been the catalyst behind the development of ICCS with the goal of changing the ways in which diversity can be viewed as an asset in life to self and to others.
Dr. Mona has created a dynamic team of professionals uniquely qualified to thread the ICCS philosophy through direct clinical services and consulting.
