Empowering Black Women through Therapy

Our Philosophy

Every Black woman should invest in herself.

That’s why we are so serious about our core values — Especially our core value of Psychoeducation.

So what does this mean? It means we believe you deserve the space and opportunity to learn so that you can heal and manage your mental health. It means that our services are created with you in mind. Goal driven, empathetic, and clear communication. We’re here to help you change the direction of your life and your relationships. Our team is supportive of the growth of Black women, and is here to help you along the way.

We help Black women heal from the negative mental health impact of parentification

Parentification is a process of role reversal when a child is forced to act as parent to their own parent(s).
As a child, you may have:

Cared for your parent(s) emotionally or physically
Experienced emotional neglect
Been exposed to parental substance abuse or domestic violence
Been a child of a single parent
Your parents had expectations of you but provided no real guidance

We treat obsessive anxiety and high functioning depression in Black women who feel like they:

Can’t find healthy relationships
Feel undervalued at work
Feel their voice doesn’t matter in their families

Benefits of parentification therapy:

Increased connection with yourself first, then others
Improved emotional regulation skills
A new perspective on toxic family patterns
Decreased sadness, tearfulness and loneliness
Decreased negative thinking patterns
