Counseling for Liberation

Embracing Authenticity and Value Alignment

We all live within the context of relationships, striving to connect with one another while balancing the tension between belonging and authentic self-expression. From societal expectations to family dynamics and internal feedback, these influences shape our beliefs, behaviors, and sense of self.

Understanding Liberation Counseling

In liberation counseling, we embark on a journey of questioning the societal beliefs and practices that dictate conformity to the status quo. We explore how these beliefs and behaviors may either support or hinder our ability to live authentically and aligned with our values. Liberation counseling offers the opportunity to challenge and, if necessary, dismantle these constructs to pave the way for a truer and more authentic way of being.

Personal and Political Existence

Drawing from my own experiences of poverty, ableism, cis-heteronormativity, and white privilege, I recognize the importance of understanding our lived context in gaining clarity about who we are. Our work together involves exploring the external and internal influences that shape your core self, fostering confidence, bravery, and certainty.

Treatment Approach

In restoring connection with your values, agency, and sense of purpose, we reclaim the reins over our lives. No longer do we attempt to control the reactions of others or suppress our uniqueness. Instead, we focus on building healthy boundaries, fostering compassionate self-awareness, and embracing the myriad possibilities of an aligned life driven by our values.

Together, we can nurture trust, safety, and confidence in your relationship with yourself. This process may involve questioning aspects of identity, shame, and learned strategies of survival. 

I will approach our sessions with gentleness and curiosity, while also acknowledging the connection between personal growth and societal change. Together, we navigate the complexities of your lived experiences, restoring confidence, bravery, and certainty in yourself.
