Indiana Torres is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, U.S. Navy veteran, and the founder of Mindful Connection Consulting. Her work is rooted in the belief that education, wellness, and cultural connection are not luxuries — they are pathways to resilience and dignity.

As a bilingual Latina clinician who has traveled to over 40 countries, she brings both professional expertise and lived cultural knowledge to every workshop, training, and wellness experience she facilitates.
