I’m honored to be presenting at the Community Care In Action Symposium: Cultivating Rightful Presence, organized by Graceful Therapy LLC!

I will be presenting on a topic close to my heart and my work:

“Trauma-Informed Therapy for African American Couples: Culturally Responsive Approaches for Healing, Connection, and Relational Resilience.”

My presentation will explore how therapists can approach couples work with greater attention to trauma, cultural context, emotional safety, and the strengths within Black relationships.

I look forward to sharing, learning, and connecting with colleagues committed to thoughtful, culturally responsive care.
