Hi! I'm Bianca, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York. I'm a dedicated therapist committed to empowering Black women on their journey towards mental and emotional well-being. My practice focuses specifically on serving Black women ages 22 and older who are navigating the complexities of life while grappling with mental health issues. With a compassionate and culturally sensitive approach, I specialize in supporting individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, and self-esteem challenges. I recognize that societal pressures, systemic inequities, and cultural dynamics can significantly impact one's mental and emotional state. Through personalized therapy sessions tailored to your unique needs and experiences, my goal is to empower you to reclaim your sense of self-worth, cultivate resilience, and rediscover joy and fulfillment in your life. Together, we'll explore and address the root causes of your challenges, develop coping strategies, and cultivate inner strength and confidence. My ultimate aim is to help you not just survive, but thrive – to embrace your inherent worthiness, celebrate your strengths, and step into your power with courage and conviction.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our initial session, we'll focus on getting to know each other and setting the stage for our work together. You'll have the opportunity to share your reasons for seeking therapy, your goals, and your expectations. I'll also take some time to gather information about your psychosocial history, including your upbringing, cultural background, relationships, and significant life events. Towards the end of the session, we'll assess whether we're a good fit for each other. If so, we'll collaborate to set realistic and achievable goals for our work together. We'll lay the groundwork for future sessions focused on addressing your challenges and fostering growth and healing.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

With over a decade of experience in the field of mental health, specializing in working with Black women, I bring a wealth of expertise and insight to my practice. My greatest strengths as a provider lie in my compassionate, affirming, and collaborative approach to therapy. I excel at cultivating a therapeutic environment that is both empowering and nurturing, where clients feel empowered to explore their innermost thoughts and emotions and to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing.
