I have a considerable background working with the African American community and other communities of color & the LGBTQ and non- binary communities. I work with Adults, Teens, Individuals, and Couples from all cultural backgrounds. Together we can address issues important to you, such as anxiety, depression, cultural identities, and trauma. I recognize the role that race, culture, and identity play in our lives and how oppression, prejudice, and racism(& other isms), can hinder our wellness.

My Background and Approach
Over the past five years, I have worked with teens, communities of color, and the LGBT population. I have experience working with, school stress, workplace stress, first-generation immigrants, the dynamics of aging, racism, homophobia, transphobia, conflict, and life transitions. My therapeutic approach is Relational; Supportive; Empathetic; Conversational, and Collaborative. I will challenge you to be an active partner in therapy and to work toward ongoing insight, growth, and positive change. Through our collaboration, we may utilize multiple theoretical approaches such as Cognitive Therapy, Solution-Focused, Trauma-Focused, Psychodynamic, LGBTQ Affirmative, and Attachment-based therapy.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Often, one may seek psychotherapy when struggling or dealing with some personal or mental health issues. A common misconception about psychotherapy is that you must have a mental health issue when engaging in treatment. Psychotherapy has immense value to anyone who wants to understand themselves better or examine the dynamics of their interpersonal relationships. It’s an exploratory process that seeks to provide insight, an invaluable tool to have at your disposal. Therapy can provide a safe, supportive place for people to talk about grief, adjustment to physical illness, the end of a relationship or job, abuse issues, or any change in life circumstances that cause distress. Therapists help clients learn coping skills to get them through these times.

Coping With Moods: The Challenge of the Turbulent Mind

#Mood #Impulses #selfregulate #selfsoothe #Triple5LightTherapy #BlackMaleTherapist #Psychotherapy The power of moods and impulses can be overwhelming, but we can learn to self-regulate and self-soothe through awareness practices like meditation and mindfulness. By developing a healthy dialogue with our emotional nature, we can access deeper parts of ourselves and become more resilient in the face of stress and pressure. Rather than being swept away by our ever-shifting moods, we can learn to pause and reflect before acting. by Gillian McCann, Ph.D., and Gitte Bechsgaard, RP

4 Strategies for practicing Radical Self-Acceptance

Radical Self-Acceptance Painting by Jennifer Mazzucco #mindfulness #self-judgment #RadicalSelfAcceptance #negativethinkingpatterns #thoughts Radical acceptance involves acknowledging how life unfolds without resistance, even if we don't like things at any given moment. It can take effort to apply this principle. How can we begin to accept our situation and ourselves despite experiencing anxiety, uncertainty, and fear? Why self-acceptance is not the same as complacency. It is essential now, more than ever, to practice radical self-acceptance. This means training ourselves to find inner stability despite unpredictable external circumstances. Ultimately, we are responsible for acknowledging our hidden wounds, which can lead to personal and collective growth. Radical self-acceptance is the opposite of avoiding responsibility or giving up in self-defeat. It requires pushing against old ways of being to open the door to deep healing. Embracing radical self-acceptance allows us to int...

#China #Coronavirus #Outbreak #Quarantine #Wuhan #SARS #Epidemic By James Griffiths, CNN The number of Wuhan coronavirus deaths in mainland China has overtaken the 2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemic in the country, as Beijing injected billions of dollars into an economy hit by weeks of effective shutdowns to major cities.
