Unpopular opinion: your therapist friend/family is not your personal therapist. Family wants to seek advice instead of going to therapy. In dating, we’re always asked, “are you going to analyze me?” Or people assume you always have it together and dump before checking in on you.

Because therapists spend our workdays actively listening, our personal time must be fiercely protected. Although not always poorly intended, our natural empathetic presence often draws people toward seeking free, informal advice which can become a heavy one sided relationship when it extends beyond typical venting.

Setting firm limits prevents emotional burnout, avoids ethical conflicts of interest (dual relationships), and ensures that therapist's personal time remains a space for rest and genuine connection rather than unpaid professional labor.

Visibility as a q***r individual in therapeutic spaces is highly intentional. It is about actively creating a safer space for my community to counteract histories of systemic erasure, pathologization, and trauma. The traditional idea that a therapist should be a neutral, identity-less “blank slate” is often counterproductive. Affirming therapy actively honors a client’s lived experience and builds rapport, counteracting the microaggressions, marginalization, or alienation they face in daily life.

As a therapist and somatic practitioner who prioritizes cultural humility, I support clients in becoming the expert of their own lives. The process of healing encourages self awareness, understanding, and insight in order to navigate through life in a healthier way. Thus, I am here to help empower you to begin that journey and improve your quality of life. In doing this, you can begin to relinquish survival skills that no longer serve your mental and emotional well-being to live a life more fulfilling.

And that’s what PRIDE is all about; living a life authentic to who you are, and who you’re becoming 🏳️‍🌈

Energy workers and practitioners utilize a variety of practices to reset a home’s energetic footprint. When you enter your own space, you want it to feel like an environment of comfort and safety. House clearing cleanses the energetic history of a home so new owners don’t absorb the energy of past owners or to not absorbs the energy of guest who may have visited your home.

What reason would I need an energetic house cleanse?

• You moved into a new home to start fresh.

• Perhaps after major life transitions, such as a divorce, grief, or job loss.

• Following periods of illness or chronic conflict in the house.

•Or, if the house just feels “heavy” or inexplicably unwelcoming.

The goal is to transform heavy atmospheres caused by stress, illness, or past occupants into a harmonious, peaceful environment, ultimately improving the well-being, sleep, and overall quality of life.

For more information, please feel free to contact me to consult.

Hello Chicagoland 👋🏾 Join me next month for a day of gentle remembrance, nervous system support, and compassionate connection. This is an opportunity to engage in a small intimate grief healing circle with reiki energy and other somatic modalities. This circle allows our grief to be witnessed and connect with other community members who also have experienced some form of loss.

Whether a loved one, a job, a marriage, a child, an opportunity, or a place, grief can be a complex journey of anger, sadness, disappointment and disconnection. Grief is not just an emotional experience; it is a physiological one. When we don’t express those emotions, those feelings take hold within the body, locking tension into muscles, altering breathing patterns, and chronically activating your nervous system. Releasing it through somatic movement and connection to a supportive community allows your nervous system to return to a state of balance and restore vitality to continue the work our ancestors called us to do.

Date: August 22, 2026
Time: 10am-12pm
Location: Bolingbrook IL

What to bring: yoga mat, water, a sacred item, bug spray, and open mind and heart.

“Who all gone be there?”: Limited Capacity of 15 Seats

Grounding, or “earthing,” means to have direct physical contact with the Earth to be able to absorb the planet’s natural energy to the body. This practice is linked to reduced inflammation, improved sleep, reduced stress, and increased energy by reconnecting yourself with the Earth's natural frequency. Take your pups and go outside and enjoy a picnic and ground together 💜✨🙏🏾🧘🏾‍♀️

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms; future moms, grieving moms, aunties, surrogates, pet moms, grandmas, nurturing women amongst their loved ones and every lady in between. Women share the capacity to conceive, nurture, protect, and bring forth life in many forms rather ideas, art, healing spaces, movements, wisdom, and community.

Thinking of community as womb, many women create spaces where people feel safe enough to grow, transform, and belong. The divine feminine often manifests as the one who gathers, nourishes, and reminds others of their wholeness. There is no love, like a woman’s love. Happy Mother’s Day to the women who continue to create space 💐

Happy Mental Health Awareness Month. This month we focus on reducing stigma and increasing access to care through community resources, educational events, and screenings. Local access includes 24/7 crisis support via 988, community health centers, support groups, and initiatives from NAMI. The theme this year is, “More Good Days, Together.” It is to encourage us all to reflect on what a “good” day looks like, both for ourselves, and for our communities.

“Sometimes, a good day for me is as simple as making it through each moment, good or bad, as they come.”

Recognize that blame-shifting is often a defense mechanism designed to protect against intense shame or perceived attack on self-worth. You can validate someone’s internal pain or feelings while simultaneously holding them accountable for their actions and externalizing behaviors. Reframe accountability as an act of power and emotional maturity rather than punishment.
