Racial Identity Therapists in Bartlett, IL
There are times in our lives when we feel lost, stuck, and unhappy. Sometimes we’re not sure how or why we feel this way. There are other times when we can pinpoint exactly what's making us feel anxious, pressured, depressed, stressed, angry, or confused, but we don't know what to do about it all, how to fix it, or how to manage our painful feelings. Whether you know what is causing your distress or not, it's impacting your life. If you are uncertain about how to accept, change, move forward, and feel better, I encourage you to seek counseling. You don't have to cope alone. You deserve to feel better, grow, and heal. Do it for you.

Growing up, mental health is not something I heard of or talked about often. Being raised Mexican for me meant that the chances of having a conversation about mental health was not likely, much less learning how to express my emotions and stress in healthy ways. The older I get, the more I learn, the more people I meet--the more I strive to help bring mental health awareness and education to not only the Latinx community but to anyone willing and ready to learn.

Deciding to take the next step to participate in therapy can be a hard decision to make, but it can be one of the best decisions especially with someone that is holding space for you. As a black woman who grew up in a religious home, there was no room for therapy. I know now that was one of the biggest mistake made. We all go through things at different stages of our lives. I hope you know you are not alone. I would be honored to come alongside of you to walk through these hard issues in life.
