Therapy for BIPOC, Latinx, and Persons of Color

At Mindful Healing Counseling, we believe in supporting mental health and well-being within the Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) community. Our dedicated team of therapists is committed to providing culturally competent and inclusive mental health care in a safe, affirming and inclusive environment.

Deciding to begin therapy is a significant step, and having a therapist who really understands you can make a huge difference. We get it. It's like having someone by your side who truly grasps what you're going through. While everyone's story is unique, many BIPOC, Latinx, and people of color feel a sense of validation when they have support from a therapist who shares a part of their identity.

Perhaps you've had experiences with therapists from different backgrounds where you found yourself constantly explaining or educating them about the intricacies of your cultural identity. Worse, your experiences might have been downplayed or dismissed.

About Our Chicago Counseling Team

Here at Mindful Healing Counseling, we value the importance of working with therapists who are culturally competent, understand the unique aspects of your background, and are prepared to support your mental health.

If you're new to therapy or beginning again, you might be seeking a space where you can be entirely yourself without the need to constantly explain or adjust. Look no further; you've come to a place where therapists not only share your cultural background, but are also passionately committed to providing affirming and inclusive care to all identities.

Our goal is to help you rediscover and embrace your power, voice, and inner truths so you can build a more meaningful and authentic life.

Affirming and Inclusive Therapy for the BIPOC & Latinx Communities

Our therapists have walked alongside clients from various backgrounds and communities, including LGBTQIA+, disabled, and neuro-divergent communities.

Our approach to therapy and counseling is designed to prioritize a safe space where BIPOC, Latinx and persons of color can fully embrace and express their true selves. We approach counseling for the BIPOC and Latinx communities from a place of being humble and open to each person’s story. Many of our therapists are also part of these communities. Our practice is rooted in a deep belief in the value of cultural competence and humility.
