Abstract: In the present study, we used a large, national data set to examine psychotherapy outcomes from 9,515 Latinx clients seeking treatment in 71 college or university counseling centers in the United States, 13 of which were in Hispanic-serving institutions (HSIs) and 58 in predominantly White institutions (PWIs). We examined the hypothesis that Latinx clients in HSIs, compared to Latinx clients in PWIs, would experience greater relief in symptoms of depression, generalized anxiety, and academic distress over the course of psychotherapy. Results of multilevel modeling offered partial support for our hypothesis. Compared to their counterparts in PWIs, Latinx clients in HSIs were found to experience significantly greater relief in academic distress over the course of psychotherapy, but there were no significant differences between Latinx clients in HSIs and PWIs in terms of changes in depression or generalized anxiety over time. We offer recommendations for future research and discuss the practical implications of these findings.
