Black History Month 2023 has arrived! We believe in the fundamental importance of engaging in anti-racist work and acknowledging and addressing the obstacles that members of the Black Community face daily and in their search for mental health care and support. We believe that therapy and medical care should be accessible to everyone and something that all people can feel comfortable and confident using to feel and live their best. It is our responsibility as socially just and anti-racist therapists to engage in work everyday to enhance our anti-racist practice, educate ourselves, and work to provide supportive therapeutic spaces and opportunities for everyone. 

We believe it's fundamentally necessary to acknowledge and address mental health stigma to help people overcome the obstacles to getting help when they're struggling. An often overlooked part of mental health stigma is acknowledging the different obstacles that people face in communities of color. Therapy and medical care should be accessible to everyone and something that all people can feel comfortable and confident using to feel and live their best.
