Feminist Therapists in Raleigh, NC
I see therapy as a collaborative journey, using integrative techniques including narrative therapy, CBT, Adlerian, and feminist therapy—all approached with a culturally conscious lens.
I'm Mahogany (she/her), and I’m here to support clients on their journey to self-discovery, self-love, and empowerment. I work with children, teens, and young adults as they navigate emotional regulation and mood disorders, identity exploration, and major life transitions—whether it’s processing grief, coping with family changes, managing puberty, or adjusting to a new home or sibling. For parents, I offer a compassionate space to explore the challenges of parenting while reconnecting to themselves.

My theoretical approach utilizes Existentialist Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Hey there! My therapeutic approach is a simple one: everyone and anyone is welcome in my office, I believe that you are the expert on you, and as your therapist it is my role to help you facilitate progress towards your life goals and/or settling any conflicts you might be facing. For us, that begins by simply building rapport and a sense of transparency between you and myself. As a therapist, I’ve gained clinical experience with clients working through anxiety, depression, stress, academic concerns, family turmoil, identity concerns, body image concerns (specializing with males) as well as emotional, physical and sexual trauma.

You're not alone. Many of us who come from marginalized backgrounds experience a healthcare system that doesn’t believe us, take us seriously, or understand us. We can feel isolated in our pain, and the very system that is supposed to provide healing instead causes us more harm. This is why I approach therapy through a racial justice, feminist, disability justice, LGBQIA+ and TGNC affirming, and intersectional lens to ensure that your lived experience is validated and respected.

Feminist Therapists
How does feminist therapy work?
Feminist therapy sessions are not only personal but often cultural or political in nature, as the approach is based on the belief that people are affected by, and often struggle with, cultural and societal norms and biases, and need to move beyond those external pressures or stressors to tap their own confidence and engage more fully in their own identity. Sessions may therefore include discussions of sexism, diversity, and gender issues and talk of steps toward greater empowerment for patients who believe they have been silenced and seek to raise their voices.
What are examples of feminist therapy techniques?
Along with traditional talk therapy and analysis, a feminist therapist may employ techniques such as role-playing and assertiveness training to help clients build their self-esteem so that they feel they can act freely, and not based on cultural expectations or gender roles dictated by others. A feminist therapist may also engage in bibliotherapy, offering suggested readings on gender identity or social power inequities as they work toward viewing mental-health concerns through a broad cultural lens before focusing on how they affect the individual. Somatic therapy techniques, with an emphasis on body awareness, self-compassion, and mindfulness practices are also often part of feminist therapist practice.
How long does feminist therapy last?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for feminist therapy; people who believe that they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that had been holding them back. It may take some time to become comfortable discussing personal issues, but once a client feels they can do so, they could expect therapy to last for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.
Does feminist therapy work?
As a relatively recent therapeutic technique, there is not yet a body of evidence proving the efficacy of feminist therapy. However, the approach is based on proven core principles of talk therapy, with a particular emphasis on developing a therapeutic relationship based on equality and authentic connection between therapist and client and discovering and building on clients’ personal strengths to help them gain a greater sense of personal power and agency.
