Black Women and Depression
While many have depression there are uniquenesses to how women of color experience their symptoms. Additionally, many clinical treatment modalities were not created with consideration for minority cultural life experiences. I am a therapist in training with years of personal experience living with depression and was at one time suicidal. I bring to this group warmth, knowledge and a space to be fully culturally present. This telehealth virtual group will meet weekly for six weeks beginning in April. Please consider a complementary 30 minute intake discussion, group is limited to 8 participants.

Black Women and Boundaries
This is a Blackcentric space for Black Women to explore setting healthy boundaries and practicing assertive skills. Boundary setting is essential, yet particularly challenging for women who are frequently PERCEIVED as argumentative, disagreeable and aggressive. The group is a safe space for reflection and will be kept intentionally small to support intimate sharing. This 2 hours group will meet weekly virtually and will not take insurance but a superbill can be prepared. Contact me to set up a complementary 30 minute discussion to see how this experience will benefit you.
