Racial trauma is the name of the mental and emotional pain many non-white people feel as a result of experiencing racism and discrimination. Albeit being a worldwide phenomenon and the root cause of PTSD for many Black, Indigenous and people of colour, few therapists and counsellors know how to treat it. Many are left without support and knowledge on how to heal from the devastating effects of oppression and discrimination.
Racism is a weight that people of colour must carry that can leave them feeling powerless, anxious, restless and afraid. The cumulative impact of racism leaves deep emotional, physical and psychological scars; a form of stress that affects the overall health, disrupts relationships and reduces quality of life.
Barriers to access healing are partly compounded by barriers to culturally safe care, lack of ethnoracial representation and traditional PTSD treatment often falls short because they aren´t built with these unique lived experiences in mind.
The Healing Racial Trauma Protocol (HRTP) is a new, research-based approach designed for racialised individuals. It offers a culturally grounded, evidence-informed path and structure towards healing. Its effectiveness has been explored in clinical trials and has a focus on reducing the symptoms of racial trauma, as well as improving day-to-day functioning.
Dr. Monnica Williams developed this protocol, which includes techniques for combating internalised racism and self-blame, processing race-based trauma, and increasing clients’ sense of agency in the face of racism.
As a transracial adoptee, I have firsthand lived experience of how the white gaze can disrupt one’s sense of safety, as well as how challenging it can be to face racism without a true sense of belonging to a particular context or culture.

Coaching with me is about discovering and having new access to and understanding your desires, reframing your challenges and learning new ways to express boundaries.
As a Board-Certified Sexologist and tantra practitioner, I’m well-informed about diverse perspectives on sexual health and wellness. Many of my clients seek support to deepen their connection with their bodies and sensuality. We will choose a direction and approach together based in your wishes.
Others want to work through traumas that block feelings of freedom, joy, and playfulness, often related to attachment styles or partner choices.
Whatever your purpose or longing, this space is for you. Together, we will define what safety means for you, create a non-judgmental space for releasing shame and guilt, and focus on what it means to feel Seen, Heard, and Accepted. These insights can then extend to your other relationships.
