Articles for Clients

This page gathers writing intended for people considering or currently in therapy. These articles are educational in nature and are not a substitute for psychotherapy.

Understanding Anxiety Through the Body

• Why Distance From the Body Makes Sense

• When Intrusive Thoughts Aren’t Just Cognitive: A Somatic Perspective for Black Women

• Why Anxiety Shows Up Differently in High-Achieving Black Women

What to Expect in Therapy

• How to Prepare for an Online Therapy Session
  (boundaries, presence, treating the time like an office visit)

• Do You Need a Black Therapist?
  (fit, identity, values — without prescribing one answer)

Therapy Resources & Access

• Therapy Resources & Low-Cost Options in California

Why this works (clinically and editorially)

• You are not forcing new pieces into old frames

• You are honoring why someone would read each article

• You are separating:

  • Understanding (anxiety, body)

  • Process (how therapy works)

  • Access (resources)

That is psychologically coherent.
