Therapy for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)

in Oklahoma and North Carolina.

You Don’t Have to Mask Your Pain or Minimize Your Experiences Anymore.

You may feel silenced right now. Like your experiences don’t matter or you’re just “playing the race card.” You may think you should get used to the struggle because this is just the way your life will always be.

Request Appointment

You deserve to feel heard and to know your voice is respected and taken seriously. To be a BIPOC is exhausting, terrifying, and infuriating, while also being full of pride and beauty.

“This is not our destination…This is where our journey begins.”
~ Black Panther

Do You Feel Tired, Unsafe, Angry?

Do any of the following resonate with you?

You feel like no matter how hard you work, you’ll always be behind or seen as “less than” by dominant culture.
You think constantly about your loved one’s safety and if they’ll make it home alive.
You have “the talk” with your kids as soon as they can understand it because you know any perceived misstep could cost them their life.
You feel fear stricken, even in the “comfort” of your own home.
You search for a community of safe people who understand your experiences and can hold you down when you need it.
You’re tired of being forced to fit a mold that wasn’t built with you in mind.
You have to hide your real self in public and can only take off your mask in private.
You have been discriminated against based on the color of your skin.
You have to work a million times harder than anyone else for just half of the recognition and opportunities in EVERY area of life.
You feel you can’t speak out or speak up or you’ll be labeled “angry”.
You are constantly reminded of your blackness or of the color of your skin because you don’t have the privilege to “just be”.

If you see yourself in any of these, I want you to know that in our culture, we don’t talk much about this, but we’re all impacted by the weight of these challenges. Even though you may think it, asking for help is not a sign of weakness. It shows immeasurable courage.

Self-care is not an indulgence or a selfish act. In fact, it is especially important to take care of yourself when you have the responsibility of caring for others.

My name is Adrianna Taylor and I am a Black woman therapist who is here to help.

I know it may seem like no one gets it. Maybe you were taught to keep secrets to protect others, or that therapy is for white people. I know what it’s like to carry the burdens of others’ choices and feel like you’re betraying your culture in opening up.

In a world that isn’t built for us, I can’t promise that you’ll feel safe all of the time. What I CAN promise is that your safety, voice, and healing are the only things that matter in our work together. You can be the first step in healing your ancestral trauma and ensuring future generations don’t feel scared to ask for help. Systems of care have consistently broken our trust, but you can trust me.

How Therapy for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) Works

Therapy for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) consists of 50-minute, one-on-one sessions that help you work through your concerns. In addition to listening, I will ask questions to gain deeper understanding and guide you toward effective solutions. I play an active role. Here’s how it will work step-by-step:

1. First, I provide a safe, accepting space so that you will feel comfortable sharing your struggles with me.
2. Through hearing your story, I will start to get a picture of what your challenges are.
3. We will start with helping you with immediate concerns like managing difficult emotions and challenging life situations.
4. We will also work to discover what your goals are in therapy and in life.
5. Keeping your unique goals in mind, we’ll figure out what’s needed to help you reach them.
6. Over the course of our sessions, you will start making progress towards the life you desire and deserve.

Research shows that Therapy for BIPOC can positively change your thinking, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. It can help you let go of what’s holding you back.
