Practice Information

Deeper Than Color is a group practice that offers online therapy for Black people and other people of color who want to explore their identities, experiences, and goals in a supportive and affirming environment. Our therapists are trained in various modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and multicultural counseling. We work with clients of all ages, genders, sexualities, and backgrounds, and we tailor our approach to meet your unique needs and preferences.

At Deeper Than Color, we believe that therapy is more than just talking. It is a collaborative process that involves building trust, understanding yourself and others, and creating positive change. We also recognize that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. That’s why we offer a free consultation to help you find the best therapist for you. Whether you are looking for individual, couples, family, or group therapy, we are here to help you heal, grow, and thrive.

If you are ready to take the next step in your journey of self-discovery and empowerment, contact us today to schedule your free consultation. We look forward to hearing from you and working with you.

At Deeper Than Color, we specialize in providing culturally responsive and affirming therapy for Black people and other people of color. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities that come with living in a diverse and complex society. We also recognize the impact of racism, oppression, and discrimination on your mental health and well-being. That’s why we offer therapy that is sensitive to your cultural background, identity, and values. We help you explore how your race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, religion, and other aspects of your identity affect your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We also help you cope with the stressors and traumas that you may face as a person of color in a predominantly white society. We empower you to celebrate your strengths, embrace your differences, and find your voice. We also help you connect with your community and culture, and find meaning and purpose in your life.

At Deeper Than Color, we believe that you deserve a safe and empowering space to explore your identity and culture in therapy. We understand how racism, oppression, and discrimination can affect your mental health and well-being in profound and lasting ways.

We are passionate about helping you achieve your goals and live authentically.
