Brittney Thomas, LSW

What if healing wasn’t about fixing yourself but about understanding your story, honoring your experiences, and reconnecting with your body in a way that feels safe and true? My name is Brittney, a Black queer neurodivergent therapist. My approach to care is shaped by Black queer and trans feminist, abolitionist, and decolonial frameworks, and grounded in principles of transformative, restorative, and disability justice. I honor and use any pronouns shared with care and respect. I recognize that therapy is not separate from the power dynamics that exist in the world. In our work together, I hold institutional power, and I take that responsibility seriously. My commitment is to center equity over authority, showing up as present, accountable, and human walking alongside you, not ahead of you. I specialize in supporting Black individuals and those most impacted within our communities, including folks navigating the layered realities of transmisogynoir and its impact on mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. I also welcome those aligned with liberatory values and open to engaging in honest, courageous self-exploration. My approach integrates liberatory frameworks, ancestral wisdom, and somatic practices, recognizing that the body is deeply connected to our lived experiences, including how systemic and institutional oppression and violence shape how we relate to, present in, and feel at home in our bodies. The body carries our stories, and learning to listen to it, trust it, and return to it can be a meaningful part of the healing process. At the heart of my work is presence, authenticity, and a deep respect for your lived experience. I am committed to ethical practice, ongoing learning, and social justice. If you feel ready to explore your story, deepen your self-understanding, and shift your relationship with the pain you carry, I invite you to reach out. Healing is not about erasing what you’ve been through but learning how to hold it with care, intention, and self-honor. You don’t have to do this work alone.
