Break Free From the Strong Black Woman Stereotype
Mental Health Counseling for Strong Black Women, helping professionals, unlearning & walking away from what’s killing them.
How much more will being the strong one cost you?
Being the strong one comes at a cost
And strength has become your default setting.
You wake up already carrying the weight of other people’s needs, running on empty but still pushing through, because that’s what’s expected of you. You keep showing up, no matter how heavy it gets, but the truth is: carrying it all is breaking you down.
BUT THE REALITY IS…
You’ve been abandoning yourself in the name of “professionalism” and “loyalty.”
Work has become survival, not purpose—and it’s costing you your mental health.
Your relationships feel one-sided, where you give and give but rarely feel matched in energy, care, or reciprocity.
Deep down, you’re over it. You know you deserve more than crumbs. You want relief. You want reciprocity. You want a life that feels aligned with your values, not your roles in someone else’s life or your job description.
Picture this instead:
Choosing wellness over workaholism.
Being in relationships where your energy is matched.
Walking away from jobs that drain you—and not feeling guilty for saving yourself.
Finally living rested, grounded, and free.
Sis, if this is hitting a nerve, you’re exactly where you need to be.

WHITE SUPREMACY AND CAPITALISM CAN’T HAVE MY BODY.
- TRICIA HERSEY
You don’t have to suffer in silence. Be heard, find clarity, and begin to build a life that reflects your values—not the survival patterns.
Helping Black women helping professionals who are struggling with self-abandonment, chronic burnout, and workaholism stop functioning as the Strong Black Woman and start prioritizing their wellness by aligning their lives with their values, experience relief and reciprocity in their relationships, and leaving jobs that harm their mental health.
Therapy That Puts Black Women’s Mental Health Above Everyone Else’s Demands
Therapy with me is online, deeply personal, and designed as a space where Black women can feel safe and truly belong.
