About Jade
"I assist individuals (adults and adolescents) & people in relationships with embracing and navigating their emotions in a society that often stigmatizes such expressions. My approach is particularly beneficial for those with non-conforming identities, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, kink, and poly communities. Additionally, I offer support to Black people navigating strained parental relationships, people of Caribbean descent, people with ADHD, and those who have been labeled or feel 'too sensitive.' My mission is to foster self-acceptance and equip clients with the skills to navigate their identities amidst societal expectations.
My therapeutic style is disarming, practical, and authentic. I practice from a strengths-based approach, mainly using acceptance & commitment, experiential, somatic, and solution-focused therapeutic modalities. Additionally, my roots in community mental health have resulted in non-judgmental, practical, and holistic interventions.
One of my favorite quotes is by Thich Nhat Hahn: “Don’t throw away your suffering. Touch your suffering. Face it directly, and your joy will become deeper." As your therapist, I am committed to witnessing your pain (and joy!) in a gentle, honest, conscientious way as we work together to bring you more overall life satisfaction.
Jade is under the direction of Liz Diaz, MA, NCC, LPC
