A Need For Nuance 

Nuanced Healing LLC was born from my personal and professional desire to show up and serve as my authentic self in Health and Wellness spaces. I’d grown tired of the traditional compartmentalized approach to wellness…(ex, Check for safety, apply evidence-based intervention, refer out for anything that doesn’t neatly fit into the “mind-body” compartments. RINSE & REPEAT)

“Traditional” wellness has its benefits. There are also frustrating limitations. Our lives aren’t collections of independent check-off boxes. We consist of countless dynamic factors and experiences. Culture, familial roles, social supports, spiritual beliefs, career demands, and access to resources are just some factors that impact well-being.

While I don’t propose that each area can or should be “fixed” with holistic wellness, I believe each aspect of the whole person is worthy of acknowledgment and honor.

Nuanced Healing’s mission is to compassionately welcome the complexities and dualities of the human experience and increase the space for authentic and intrinsic healing.

Nuance  For Women

I’m a woman’s woman through and through.

I am deeply committed to the validation and empowerment of women. The challenges, expectations, and opportunities women face often come with more criticism than guidance and support.

It seems everyone, with a mic and an internet connection has (loud) opinions on what is “proper femininity” or “Successful Womanhood.” Black women are inundated with particularly harsh critiques and implausible expectations.

Nuanced Healing specializes in creating safe spaces for Women.  Specific priority is given to assisting Black Women:

  • Heal from racial and gender-based trauma

  • Find their authentic voice

  • Identify and eliminate internalized misogyny

  • Replace self-criticism and self-judgment with curiosity and hope

  • Practice radical acceptance and find personal liberation

Nuance In Practice 

SYMPTOMATOLOGY

Too many individuals fail to receive the care and support they need because they don’t have “textbook” symptoms. Nuanced Healing focuses on detailed and culturally diverse assessments for appropriate care.

CARE/ TREATMENT

Culturally competent and socially relevant wellness is at the heart of Nuanced Healing. It’s critical to prioritize client-directed goals that honor the client's identity.

Nuanced Healing affirms authenticity and professionalism are not mutually exclusive. Integrity, respect, and healthy boundaries foster therapeutic alliance. Professionals are allowed to have personalities.
