Mixed Race Therapy

To be understood. To Share. To Know

What is Mixed Race Therapy?

Mixed Race Therapy is therapy for those that identify as being, or are of mixed heritage.

Along my journey as a counsellor, I have found that many Mixed Race people want to speak to another Mixed Race person to have counselling, however, finding a Mixed Race counsellor can be difficult.

​

Being Mixed Race is a very different experience than if you are born into a family where everyone is the same race and you all look alike. There are lots of things that a Mixed Race person may find themselves having to navigate. Identity, culture, conflict, internalised racism, working out where you may fit in society. 

​

In Mixed Race therapy, it is an opportunity to speak openly about all the issues you have found whilst being Mixed Race. You are also able to speak about other issues too, the only difference is that you will be speaking to a Mixed race counsellor who understands and gets it.

​

For some people, it's a space to share their experiences and what it was like growing up, and for others it's about gaining permission to explore a part of their heritage they have not yet been able to.

​

If that sounds like something you'd like to consider exploring, please use the 'Book a Session' button to get in contact with me, to organise a time to meet to help you decide if it is something you'd like to do.

I am a parent with Mixed Race children, can I come to therapy too?

​

Being the parent of Mixed Race children can be difficult and bring up its own challenges. If you would like to speak with me in sessions about this you are welcome to contact me. 

​

As a parent, you may want to speak about family dynamics of being in a mixed family, your experiences with your own family, or conversations you'd like to have with your children, and a variety of other issues/topics that may or have arisen for you.
