Welcome to BLACC (Black Liberation and Community Care) ! I created BLACC to be a center for Black healing, joy, community, liberation, and freedom. Therapy is a chance for us to explore the inner workings of our minds, beliefs, and practices in order to live more holistic, fulfilling lives. Many of us have never been able to explore or process difficult emotions, nor approach relationships with authenticity, vulnerability, and compassion. All too often, we are asked to sacrifice our needs; take up less space; or make room for others. Here, your existence is not up for debate. You don’t have to compromise.

My approaches are client centered, solution focused and strength based. I utilize processes that are interactive, collaborative and holistic. I honor each clients unique healing journey and guide them through self-compassion and self-care.

Looking for a therapist means that you have made it this far in your healing journey; and that you are working towards the change that you feel you need. My professional experience centers on working with children and adults seeking counseling and crisis management, while supporting their caregivers and or parents.

I believe everyone deserves a chance to find peace and joy in their lives. My personal experience of being a plus-size Black woman has given me insight into how oppression and internalized oppression can shape our experiences and view of the world, and stop us from reaching our fullest potential. No matter the circumstance, you deserve a safe space to discuss the pressures, stigmas, trauma, shame, hurt, loss, and oppressive systems you have to navigate every day. Therapy should serve as a space for you to explore your many intersectional identities and start the journey to becoming your best self.

We live in a world where being yourself is under threat and personal identity and personal attacks are on the rise. Creating a safe space for clients to voice their concerns without judgement can be extremely beneficial for individuals. Finding out underlining themes, creating workable and realistic goals and helping people be at peace with who they are and where they are in life is paramount in self identity.

Activism is a huge part of what I bring in my therapy work with clients. In trauma and healing work, I bring my direct experiences of anti-oppression, feminist, and social justice frameworks to clients. I understand that I am not excused from doing work to dismantle systems of oppression, due to the privileges from my intersectional identities as a college-educated, cisgendered, Filipina woman of color. Trauma and healing work require an alignment and connection to one’s body, mind, spiritual values and practices, and I see this as an extension of my involvement in activism, anti-oppression, and social justice work.

Therapy is about asking the basic question: What hurts and why? Together, we will spend time with this question - gently, slowly, carefully. Therapy is not only for those with "capital T" trauma or a mental health diagnosis, but for anyone who would like to get to know themselves, perhaps for the first time. To listen to what emerges when you pay kind, careful attention to yourself. You may be seeking more fulfilling relationships, relief from challenging feelings/behaviors, or deeper self-understanding.

I work with youth, age 13+, and adults across the lifespan. I'm passionate about LGBTQIA+ and gender affirming mental health therapy. I support folks in navigating and exploring relationship to self and others (sex and body neutral, ethical non-monogamy and poly affirming), anxiety, depression, trauma, family of origin, disability, chronic-illness, grief, substance use, life transitions and challenges. I have an intersectional, anti-oppressive approach to therapy— highlighting how our relationship to ourselves, community, environment, and historical legacies impact and affect each other.

As a queer, trans, nonbinary therapist with thirteen years of experience, I’m dedicated to providing compassionate and inclusive support to LGBTQIA+ individuals. My work is grounded in an anti-racist framework, ensuring that every aspect of our sessions honors and addresses the complexities of identity and systemic inequality. My passion includes working with diverse identities and communities, from polyamory and kink to perinatal and family-building concerns, with a particular focus on queer and trans individuals. As a parent, I bring a deep understanding of family dynamics and the unique challenges faced during transitions.

As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, I’ve worked with folx from diverse backgrounds in various states of crisis, grief, health, and growth while navigating oppressive systems that often require folx to show up in certain ways to get what they need. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to show up wholly and fully as yourself – where you don’t feel the need to hide parts of your identity out of fear of not being accepted as you are. In working together, my hope is that I can help you to define and own your story.

¡Bienvenidos! Welcome! I’ve been in your shoes. Nervous about the idea of talking to a stranger about my feelings and emotions. It’s valid. As a therapy-goer myself (yes, therapists have therapists!), working on yourself is no easy process. We come with our own lived experiences, memories, trauma, and challenges. o why go on this intense roller-coaster ride filled with ups and downs, flips, twists and turns? Because you deserve to live out your life without the echoes from the past keeping you from living out your fullest potential.
