Find an BIPOC Therapist
Culturally-responsive care from providers who truly understand.
Finding a therapist who shares your lived experiences, honors your identity, and holds space for the complexities of race, culture, and belonging can be life-changing. Whether you’re navigating intergenerational trauma, racial stress, identity development, or just want a space where you don’t have to explain “the basics,” BIPOC therapists can offer a deeper level of safety, understanding, and alignment.
At The Healing Directory, we proudly feature Black, Indigenous, and People of Color therapists who bring both professional expertise and lived wisdom into their work.
Why Seek a BIPOC Therapist?
Therapy is deeply personal. And for many BIPOC individuals, traditional therapy spaces have felt clinical, disconnected, or even invalidating. A BIPOC therapist may:
Hold awareness of systemic oppression and generational trauma
Normalize code-switching, bicultural identity, and navigating white-dominant spaces
Understand cultural family dynamics and community responsibilities
Offer space to process racial trauma without needing to educate
Empower you to explore identity with depth and compassion
You deserve therapy that sees and respects all of you — your history, your culture, your power.
What BIPOC Therapists Can Help With?
These providers are trained in a wide range of therapeutic modalities while also bringing a lens of cultural humility and liberation. They can support you with:
➾ Racial identity and internalized oppression
➾ Anxiety, depression, and burnout
➾ Imposter syndrome or perfectionism in high-stress spaces
➾ Intergenerational or family trauma
➾ Relationship and boundary challenges
➾ Healing from workplace or academic microaggressions
➾ Spirituality and ancestral reconnection
➾ Navigating mental health while honoring your community’s values
BIPOC Therapists Use a Range of Modalities
Each therapist brings their own approach, but many integrate:
➾ Trauma-informed care
➾ Somatic therapy and body-based healing
➾ Liberation psychology
➾ Internal Family Systems (IFS)
➾ EMDR for trauma and PTSD
➾ Mindfulness and grounding practices
➾ Culturally-relevant frameworks
➾ Narrative therapy to reframe harmful cultural stories
You don’t need to know exactly what you’re looking for. We can help you figure that out — together.
