Attention: people of color with depression, anxiety and/or ADHD
If you get stuck in fight/flight/freeze at work, feel burnt out, & can't stop the wrong/awful feelings, you're welcome to heal here!
I use a body-based, trauma-informed approach of mindfulness, and expressive arts to help you effectively explore stressors, and set goals and boundaries to unlock more peace.
Systemic factors play a big role in trauma recovery, so cultural perspectives need to be considered. I offer tools to help you navigate work pressure, creative blocks, financial anxiety, and executive dysfunction while safely processing trauma and microaggressions.
Client-centered, goal-oriented, somatic sessions with me aim to help you to learn and practice coping strategies that honour your cultural background and lived experience. I offer practical tools, different perspectives, and actionable insights to help you build assertiveness, resilience, and self-compassion. Practice and accountability are key!
I see clients having to constantly prove themselves at home, at school and at work. This pressure makes juggling personal goals vs. family responsibilities and societal expectations even harder. You deserve a safe space to talk and move through all your complex feelings. Email me with a brief description of what you need help with, and let's make your plan!
