ABSTRACT There are direct archetypal relationships between Mesoamerican/pre-Columbian native myths and the beliefs and behaviors of gang-entrenched Latinx youth and men. These include relationships between warrior imagery and sacrifice in gang activity, the Virgin of Guadalupe and male-female relationships, and ancestral connections to the land and the love of the neighborhood. Within psychotherapy, centralizing the beliefs and experiences of gang-entrenched Latinx youth and men allows for an increase in trust and for the roles and goals of treatment to be assessed critically.

摘要 中美洲/前哥伦布时期的本土神话与根深蒂固的拉丁裔青年和男性的信仰和行为之间存在直接的原型关系。其中包括战士形象与帮派活动中的牺牲之间的关系、瓜达卢佩圣母与男女关系，以及与土地的祖先联系和邻里之爱。在心理治疗中，将根深蒂固的拉丁裔青年和男性的信念和经历集中起来，可以增加信任，并对治疗的作用和目标进行批判性评估。
