2023 Outstanding Teaching and Mentoring Award Winner:

Dr. Daniela Domínguez is an Assistant Professor at the University of San Francisco and the Chief Executive Officer at On the Margins, LLC. She is a licensed psychologist and professional clinical counselor with a special interest in liberation psychology, anti-racism, migrant justice, and gender and sexuality matters. Her program of research has focused on understanding how Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) cope with stress and use specific strategies to draw upon resiliencies to achieve positive health. Grounded in Critical Race Theory (CRT; Crenshaw, 1989), she uses critical and political methodological approaches in reaction to one-size-fits-all traditional paradigms of doing research, assessment, and evaluation. Her most recent publications encourage psychologists to distance themselves from the Eurocentric epistemologies that dominate the field of psychology today, and to move toward a critical race epistemology that understands knowledge as being shaped by membership in multiple subordinated groups and interlocking systems of oppression.
