At My Pace, In My Healing: A Space for Black Women Navigating Depression

This group is designed for Black women who are moving through depression while carrying the expectation to keep going, stay strong, and hold everything together. At My Pace, In My Healing centers the reality that healing is not linear, and it does not have to be rushed, performed, or proven to anyone. This is a non-judgmental, culturally affirming space where Black women can show up as they are, without needing to be “strong,” perfect, or put together. The focus is not on fixing, but on honoring your process, reclaiming your pace, and allowing healing to happen in a way that feels safe and true to you.

This group supports participants in:

• Reconnecting with their identity beyond survival and expectation

• Building self-compassion and releasing guilt around rest

• Learning to identify, express, and regulate emotions safely

• Understanding how depression uniquely shows up in Black women
