Is Your Inner World Feeling Heavy?

As a person of color, life’s challenges can sometimes feel heavier. Balancing cultural expectations, navigating systemic oppression, or dealing with the sting of microaggressions can leave you feeling drained and disconnected. You might be questioning your identity, managing anxiety or depression, or carrying the weight of intergenerational trauma. These feelings are valid—but they don’t have to define you. Whether you’re working through relationship struggles, trying to succeed in spaces that weren’t built with you in mind, or just looking for a space to feel seen and understood, our BIPOC therapists in Chicago are here to help. Let’s work together to lighten the load and help you step into your most authentic, empowered self.
