Proud Black Therapist. From this point on my role will be assisting in discoveries both big and small. Let's unlock the self together.Black and African American and Other Racial or Ethnic Background.
I want to help people who look like me. And be an ally to people who have been marginalized and oppressed. People who are First Generation Innovators who need to make sense of self and success. People who want to finally feel safe expressing years of trauma, and seek peace and let go of the pain that might be hindering growth in areas important to overall well being.
Specialties:
One of the hardest things to find answer about is how to I grow and maintain a sense of purpose and I move through stages and phases of life I have yet to encounter or dealt with. What does my next step in becoming a better version of myself look like? How do I heal and bring forth my inner child. I do I protect newfound peace or being a journey of finding it?
Black people and POC have a long history dealing with trauma, that have manifest in all aspects of life. Lets heal from generational and relevant trauma to end the cycles and find peace in self to move past obstacles that seem insurmountable. One of the silent and deepening threats to black people and POC is not properly processing the passing of important people or moving on. It leads so some major health risk and even mental health issues due to not allowing the feeling to be dealt with in away that give us closure. This can also look like ending meaningful relationships, friendships, and removing family from life. All of these should be handled with care and understanding to help positive growth to be discovered.
