Culturally Responsive,
Inclusive, Boutique,
Integrative Mental Health Care.
Standpoint:
A set of beliefs and ideas from which opinions and decisions are formed.
At Standpoint, we know that how you think about yourself, your life circumstances and your health all impact your relationship to health wellbeing
Wellness:
According to the World Health Organization, Wellness or health is defined as: ““a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”
Going through the motions?
Of endless therapy and disjointed healthcare appointments with little relief or support can be frustrating, expensive and disheartening.
Working with providers who aren’t quite “getting it” can compromise health and healing.
Even as providers, we have had to navigate a fragmented healthcare system that doesn’t truly see or understand us or takes a one size fits all approach to healthcare.
But we know that one size does not fit all. There has to be a higher standard.
You deserve better.
At Standpoint Wellness, we deliver personalized integrative mental healthcare with skill, vision, and compassion.

The CEO/Founder Wellness Package
Created for you, the modern BIPOC woman Founder, CEO, or executive who has been navigating the complexities of doing it all and is exhausted, stalled, frustrated and ready for something to change. You have given enough to everyone else. It is time to give something back to you. Over the next 6 months, you’ll have twice-monthly therapy sessions with a licensed psychologist, coach and business owner who deeply understands the intersection of personal and professional challenges. We’ll work together from an evidence-based, trauma-informed perspective to address the challenges that are showing up in your business life with roots in your personal story. I’ll support your mental health so you can make the business decisions that matter most. With premium scheduling and direct access to me between sessions, this package is all about helping you align your personal well-being with your professional success. Let’s connect and start this journey together.
Our Work
Meet the Founder
Standpoint Wellness grew from a realization: the existing model of mental health care misses crucial elements of care. Despite good intentions, many providers fall short in delivering culturally responsive, inclusive care. Moreover, traditional training often compartmentalizes the mind and body, failing to recognize their interconnectedness.
With over a decade of experience as a trauma psychologist, I’ve witnessed clients struggle to achieve holistic health. They make progress in one area, only to face setbacks in another. This disconnect between mental and physical well-being is evident, yet overlooked in many practices.
At Standpoint Wellness, we reject the outdated notion of mind-body separation. Instead, we embrace an integrated approach to healing, recognizing the profound connection between mental and physical health. Our customized, collaborative treatment plans support your overall well-being, empowering you to thrive in all aspects of life.
What to Expect
The wellness journey is a process of growth and
self-discovery, and in our sessions, we promote behavioral transformation by encouraging authenticity, self compassion, mindfulness, empowering, practical action and trying on new perspectives.
Step 01
Schedule a preliminary consultation through our scheduling portal.

Step 03
