Brainspotting Therapy Oakland is Anti-Racist, pro-Black/African American and pro-AAPI. When practicing good ally-ship to the Black/African-American and AAPI communities, therapy becomes an essential healing tool to help white-identifying people unlearn harmful prejudices and learn to activate their privilege to support the BIPOC community by becoming more explicitly anti-racist.
Therapy is also a place for BIPOC to heal from systemic and ancestral trauma. Black lives MATTER. Indigenous lives MATTER. Asian and Pacific Islander lives MATTER. This means ALL BIPOC, including queer black lives and trans black lives, MATTER.
In order to lower the barrier to therapy services for BIPOC and QPOC in California, a separate reduced fee schedule for therapy is available. These spots fill quickly, but please ask.
