We provide multicultural trauma-informed therapy to adults wanting to improve their mental health. We use a collaborative approach to highlight strength and resilience while helping clients manage depression, anxiety, body image dissatisfaction, racial trauma, and interpersonal relationship difficulties. We specialize in racial/ethnic identity, women's issues, LGBTQIA+ concerns, religious/spirituality concerns, gender identity and experiences of marginalized groups. Most of our clients represent a variety of intersecting identities, as do the therapists in the practice. More info at drbledman.com. Fees vary.
My clinical work is influenced by empirical research, and by my experiences as a first-generation, Black/Caribbean-American woman. I have expertise in working with sexual assault survivors, trauma recovery, and mood disorders. I also specialize in working with diverse populations and marginalized communities.
Clients describe me as accepting, nonjudgmental, and understanding. I bring warmth, genuineness, empathy, and humor to my clinical interactions. I value empowerment and validation and aim to use a culturally aware approach that provides a safe environment to explore and understand emotions and patterns of behavior. If you want to change, I can help!
