Clients of Color
#Black Lives Matter
Counseling & the counseling relationship are intended to be sanctuaries overseen by an ever-present, supportive clinician. However, this space is has not always been immune to racism and prejudice. Given my previous experience in psychotherapy
As a therapist, the best way I can support the Black Lives Matter movement is to continue to provide a safe space for all people to speak about issues related to power, privilege, and prejudice, while celebrating the identity and accomplishments of fellow Black community members and other minority groups. For clients who are seeking therapy from a clinician of color, I recommend:

I hope to foster continued dialogue on this subject so that positive growth may occur for all communities.
