Trauma-Informed Therapy for BIPOC Teens & Women in Arizona
Seeking safety, healing, and belonging through
IFS, Somatic, Nature-Based, & Trauma Therapy in Arizona
BIPOC refers to Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. If you identify with these lived experiences, you deserve a space that understands you. A space where your story, identity, and healing are honored, not minimized or pathologized.
And if you don’t identify as BIPOC but feel drawn to this approach, you ‘re welcome here too; the work is rooted in respect, relational care, and the belief that every person’s healing is held with value.
You don’t have to explain or shrink yourself here, you are deeply welcome as you are.
You’re in the right place if you’re carrying more than you should have had to.
So many BIPOC teens and women are navigating trauma, generational wounds, identity struggles, and relationships that leave them feeling unseen or overwhelmed.
Clients might come to therapy
Feeling disconnected from themselves, their culture, or their voice.
Carrying grief, anxiety, shame, or emotional exhaustion.
Navigating generational patterns and trying to break cycles.
Feeling pressure to be strong for everyone else.
Longing for deeper healing, not surface-level coping.
Wanting therapy that honors culture, intuition, and the body, not just talk.
You’ve tried talk therapy and it didn’t take root and you sense you’re ready for something deeper.
Maybe you’re someone who reads this and thinks ‘That’s me’ even if you don’t check every box.
Healing is a remembering of who you are, where you come from, and what’s possible.
Therapy with me is relational, non-pathologizing, and deeply supportive of your inner world. We work at your pace and follow your system’s natural wisdom. Together we’ll explore your nervous system, your internal parts, and the place where identity, and lived experience have shaped your story, without judgement or pressure.
This is a space to restore trust in yourself, reconnect with your body, and build the kind of internal safety you may have never been offered.
Yá’át’ééh (Hello). I’m Florina a Dine’, Native American, therapist in Arizona
As a Dine’ woman and trauma therapist, I understand the weight of carrying your story, your family’s history, and the expectations placed on you. My approach weaves, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic IFS, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Sandtray and Nature-based therapy with deep respect for culture, lineage, and identity.
I hold this work with care. You aren’t a diagnosis or a set of symptoms, you are a whole person with wisdom, resilience, and parts of you that have been protecting you for a long time.
How I Hold Space for You
My work honors all of you, your culture, values, identity, body, and the stories shaped across generations.
Therapy here isn’t rushed or clinical. Here we walk together at the pace your system needs, rooted in relationship and presence.
We slow down. We listen inward. We welcome the parts of you that have never had space to be acknowledged, supported, or understood.
And in the slowing, we make room for the wisdom of your body, your ancestors, and the land that holds you.
I hold this work with steadiness and humility, trusting that healing unfolds through connection, within yourself, with lineage, and with the natural world around you.
