With the truly troubling history of therapy that Black Americans contend with, it\u2019s no surprise that so many avoid therapy.

Our therapists have education and training in culturally competent counseling. That may sound cheesy, but this training makes a big difference in our ability to work with people across races, religions, and cultures. It means we\u2019re able to help our clients to understand the many different aspects of their past, culture, and history that come into play and impact their daily lives in myriad ways. It means you can trust us to honor the emotions and thoughts you share with us, to validate and affirm your experiences, and help you to find ways to cope with pain and trauma while still living your life fully. As culturally competent therapists, we know that recognizing and confronting issues of race and racism is essential to good therapy. It might mean we need to be a little uncomfortable. It might mean you get angry. It might mean we all feel and think and say difficult things, but it\u2019s all an essential part of the process to ensure you are safe and able to receive the effective therapy you deserve.
