Our Guiding Principles

Black Space Therapy was founded with the belief that mental health care should be tailored to the diverse needs of BIPOC communities. We focus on a holistic, intersectional approach that honors your culture, identity, and experiences. Our team is dedicated to creating a welcoming space where every individual feels safe and supported in their therapeutic journey.

We are more than just therapists; we are your allies in healing. Through an integrative approach, we provide culturally informed care that is grounded in social justice, ensuring that our clients receive the dignity and respect they deserve.

Intersectionality & Cultural Competency

Black Space Therapy creates a safe, affirming space by addressing the unique mental health needs of individuals from marginalized communities, considering the impact of race, ethnicity, gender, and other identities.

Holistic Approach

Black Space Therapy offers a holistic approach to mental health that goes beyond traditional symptom reduction. This comprehensive approach empowers you to cultivate lasting healing and achieve a sense of wholeness.

Justice-Oriented Approach

We are committed to dismantling biases and creating a more equitable mental health system while empowering clients to navigate systemic stressors affecting their well-being.

What We Do

Here at Black Space Therapy, we’re here to support you with care that feels personal, not clinical. Whether you’re looking for a safe space to talk, tools to manage life’s challenges, or a path toward healing, we’ll meet you where you are and walk with you every step of the way.

“Juliana Silva helped me organise my career plan. Highly recommend her services!”
Richard Sanchez
Patient

I’ve been seeing my therapist for a few months now, and the transformation in my life has been incredible. From the very first session, I felt comfortable and heard. She’s patient, compassionate, and truly understands the struggles I’m facing. Every session, I leave with practical tools that help me navigate life with more clarity and confidence. I especially appreciate how she tailors the sessions to my needs, never rushing me through anything. Therapy has become an essential part of my self-care routine, and I can’t imagine my life without it now.

Aaliyah M

My experience with therapy has been life-changing. I initially sought counseling to cope with some anxiety I was experiencing, but I’ve learned so much more about myself in the process. Tamera has not only helped me manage my anxiety but also guided me through building stronger, healthier relationships. I appreciate how she empowers me to take control of my own healing journey. The tools she’s given me are practical and easy to apply in everyday life. I’m so grateful for the growth I’ve experienced during our sessions. If you’re thinking about therapy, don’t hesitate—Tamera is a true gem.

Bre-Ann W

I started working with Aaron a few months ago, and I can’t even begin to describe how much my life has changed. I was stuck in a rut, unsure of my next steps, and lacking the confidence to pursue my goals. He has helped me clarify my vision, set actionable goals, and most importantly, believe in myself. He has this incredible ability to see potential in me that I couldn’t see myself. Every session leaves me feeling inspired and motivated to take on the world. If you’re ready to make a positive change in your life, I highly recommend him!

Elijah S

As someone who struggled to find an effective therapist, Nicol has been extremely helpful to me as I combat anxiety and depression. I've felt comfortable, respected, and listened to from our first session together. I leave therapy confident in my ability to heal. Nicol truly creates a judgment-free zone where Im learning a lot about myself and how to get back on my feet.
