Culture and Therapy

  It can be very difficult navigating the world as a woman of color.  Dealing with microaggressions, misogyny and everything else  can take a toll on your mental health and well being.  We understand how exhausting and challenging our lives can be at times. Therapy at Transforming Lives will  provide a safe place for you to talk about  your concerns without judgment,  code switching, or worrying  that you have to educate your therapist  on the topic.   Don't fall for the myth of the "Strong Black Woman" and deal with everything by yourself . 

 “Sometimes, I feel discriminated against, but it does not make me angry. It merely astonishes me. How can any deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.” – Zora Neale Hurston 

“We have to constantly critique imperialist white supremacist patriarchal culture because it is normalized by mass media and rendered unproblematic”
