Hey, I’m Shanice.

And I don’t want to be your therapist.

I don't want you in therapy.

I want you to learn how to step into your own power, embrace your authenticity, and to cultivate meaningful community.

My role is to help you find your voice, identify your needs, recognize what stands in your way, and examine the self-limiting beliefs that may be keeping you stuck.

This is not a space for endless validation or affirmation. It is a space for honesty, self-reflection, and growth. Together, we'll hold up a mirror, explore hard truths with compassion, and create actionable change. We'll work to release the patterns, stories, and behaviors that no longer serve you so you can move toward a life that feels more aligned, empowered, and authentic.

I stand with women.

I stand with queer, transgender, non-binary folx.

I stand with black and brown people, indigenous and colonized people, and for those not invited to the tables they built.

I stand with parentified adults and folx who want to get the heck out of dodge (i.e. move out of the states).

I stand with sex workers, the kink community and those practicing celibacy or non sexual intimacy.

I stand with folx who have experienced religious trauma, or seek spiritual reconnection.

About My Clinical Work:

Sometimes my role is to hold hope.

Sometimes it’s to hold space.

Sometimes it’s to help you hold yourself — and others — accountable.

We can unpack and rewrite stuck narratives.

We can examine family systems and coping strategies that once kept you safe

but now keep you small.

We can honor every part of your identity — in all its intersections — at your

pace and on your terms.

We can process old wounds and current ones, giving them language and

integrating them in ways that feel purposeful and alive.

We can work with your body — building capacity to feel, to notice, to regulate,

to rest.

We can get curious about your different parts and how they’ve protected you.

We can talk about the state of the world and how it lives in your nervous

system.

We can identify where you’re stuck, practice discernment around what’s yours

to carry, and move toward acceptance where control isn’t possible.

We can shift from shoulds and survival into full-bodied yeses — rooted in

pleasure, agency, and intention.
