Therapy for BIPOC Community in Georgia
You're looking for a therapist who looks like you, and more importantly,
you're looking for a therapist who gets it!
You're no stranger to the daily challenges life presents. You might be grappling with anxiety, depression, or the relentless weight of societal expectations. Feeling undervalued, misrepresented, alone, and unseen has gotten old, and it's time for change. Here's the affirmation you've been waiting for: we understand your journey, and we're here to empower you every step of the way.
The Simplicity Psychotherapy Approach
Plainly said, we center the specific experiences of those who identify as Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
We don't just offer counseling and therapy services; we provide a genuine connection with someone who understands your journey and your goals through a cultural context. We won't offer clichés or empty promises, but rather, we're committed to being your partner in overcoming your challenges and reaching your fullest potential.
Your Needs, Our Focus
At Simplicity Psychotherapy, we understand the profound challenges that Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) face daily. Given the historical trauma and racial stressors faced by BIPOC individuals, our therapists employ trauma-informed care to address these experiences with empathy and strategies for healing. Our approach is to create a plan to prioritize self-care, acknowledging the significance of cultural self-identity, and helping you find balance and regain your sense of self.
For us, it's more than just an acknowledgment; it's our heartfelt commitment to empower you by addressing the concerns that matter most to you. Empowerment through storytelling allows you to share your personal narratives, reclaim your voice, and cultivate a sense of agency, all of which are vital for healing and personal growth.
As BIPOC therapists, we've walked a similar path, and we're here not just as therapists but as compassionate companions who genuinely comprehend the intricate intersections of your experiences.

Here are some ways to empower yourself to advocate for your mental health needs, providing the tools to thrive in the face of adversity.

Managing Anxiety
The intersections of race, gender, and culture can exacerbate anxiety. We'll work with you to develop strategies that help you manage anxiety, giving you the tools to regain control over your thoughts and emotions while considering the unique aspects of your experience.
Increasing your Support and Connection
Empowerment and healing come from connecting with someone who genuinely understands your unique journey. Our therapists aren't just experts; they're companions on your path to inner peace who understand the nuances of your life experiences. You don't have to face your challenges alone – we're here to support you.
Overcoming Depression
If you're battling depression, we don't just offer generic advice—we delve deep into the root causes, working hand-in-hand with you to develop personalized, practical techniques. Together, we'll uncover the strength within you while allowing you to take control and break free from depression's hold on your life.
Navigating Expectations
The weight of societal and cultural expectations can be especially burdensome. Our tailored approach will empower you to define success on your own terms, acknowledging the multifaceted nature of these expectations and helping you develop strategies to break free from their constraints while honoring your cultural roots.
Healing Family and Intergenerational Trauma
Family dynamics can be complex, especially those involving generational trauma and unresolved conflicts. Therapists work with clients to address these issues, fostering understanding, resolving conflicts, and promoting family unity. Family and intergenerational healing is vital to address historical trauma, strengthen familial bonds, and empower future generations.
