What Does It Mean To Find Your Voice, As A Therapist?
Finding your voice as a therapist is about aligning with your truth, embracing your values, and bringing your authentic self into the therapy room. For me, authenticity means not hiding behind a mask. It's about being honest with yourself and your clients, presenting yourself as you truly are.
I don't believe in rigid professionalism that demands we dress or act a certain way if it doesn't feel genuine. My clients appreciate my relatable approach because I show up as my true self, creating a space where they can do the same.
Being an authentic therapist means not editing who you are and respecting your clients' needs while holding space in a way that is true to you.
More About Me As Your Mentor
I am a Soul Aligner passionate about guiding ambitious mental health clinicians who are uncertain about their next steps, to discover and clarify a unique, aligned path for their career through heart-centered community and mentorship.
My favorite aspect of mentoring is sharing my knowledge and wisdom with individuals who are eager to grow and learn. I find immense joy in passing on the experiences and insights I've gained throughout my career.
Helping others navigate their journeys without having to face all the hurdles I encountered is deeply rewarding.
I love sharing the tricks and strategies that have been instrumental to my success, and seeing mentees apply this knowledge is incredibly fulfilling.

I Know the Struggle, Because I’ve Been There
As a mentor, I see several common challenges among therapists. Many grapple with the concept of professionalism, feeling pressured to conform to standards that don't align with their true selves.
The idea of decolonizing therapy is essential here, as traditional therapy models often reflect a white, male perspective that doesn't resonate with everyone.
There's also the struggle with self-disclosure – finding the balance between sharing relatable experiences and maintaining professional boundaries.
Therapists often face obstacles in their work environments, too. Supervisors or agencies may impose strict modalities that don't fit every therapist's style or cultural background.
Additionally, the journey to licensure can be daunting, with confusing requirements and gatekeeping that can leave new therapists feeling lost. The lack of support and information on navigating the profession – from job hunting to salary expectations – adds to the frustration.
Many therapists feel burned out from working in low-paying jobs while being expected to guide clients towards self-care.
I Hear you And You’re Not Alone
If any of these struggles sound familiar, know that you are not alone.
It's perfectly normal to feel unsure about what’s next and frustrated. These feelings don't diminish your worth or capabilities as a therapist. Nor are they a requirement you just have to accept.
It’s precisely these obstacles I aim to help practitioners just like you avoid. “Putting your time in” through the same, unnecessary hardships is not the only path to becoming a skilled clinician. Asking for help, developing trust in yourself and your community and committing to your personal and professional growth is the alternative path and one I’m honored to be your guide on.

Testimonial
Kim Knox, APC is one of my dedicated mentees. She and I have have been working together since 2022 and I've been honored to witness her transformative journey. Here's what she has to share:
“Bianca has taught me many things that have helped in my professional and personal development as a newer therapist in the field. I’m so appreciative of the wisdom and knowledge that she has generously provided me with, especially the salient information that isn’t discussed inside the classroom setting or while making it through the APC/pre-licensed part of our career. I’ll forever be grateful for her and the time she has invested in helping new therapists. Thank you Bianca!”
