Your lived experiences and relationships have been affected by your ethnicity.
The world is not color-blind.
Many people of color have faced additional stress in Alberta because of their culture or the color of their skin.
Sometimes it's hard to talk about mental health or emotions when it's not a common part of your culture or it's taboo to talk about.
Going to counselling doesn’t mean anything is wrong with you. Therapy is one way to make your life a little better. We will work with you, with your beliefs, and with your culture and identity.
Maybe you or your family are dealing with:
-
Feeling isolated, blamed, or afraid
-
Exhaustion from defending yourself
-
Conforming in toxic situations or relationships
-
Racial trauma or discrimination
-
Immigration and adjusting to new cultures
We're here to support you.
Therapy Alberta provides culturally sensitive online counselling and therapy for individuals, partners, and families from diverse backgrounds.
Your ethnicity is one part of your identity. Your whole story matters. We're listening and we want to help.
When you connect well with a counsellor, you feel more at ease and hopeful.
Our therapy centers around creating a safe space where people of color can feel seen, heard, understood, respected, believed, and accepted.
We're not here to judge or change you. We want you to feel good about therapy.
