Many people experience dual identity, identifying with both their ethnocultural minority group and their society of residence. If you’re of mixed racial and ethnic backgrounds, you may encounter unique challenges related to your identity.
Intersectionality is a concept that helps us understand how various forms of identity—such as race, gender, sexuality, and class—intersect to affect individual experiences, particularly in terms of oppression and privilege. At Behr Psychology, we use this framework to understand better the multifaceted nature of your experiences and the specific challenges you encounter.
At Behr Psychology, we recognize that everyone’s experiences are shaped by the complex interplay of their social identities. We assist those who are culturally adapting and discovering their racial and ethnic identities.
Therapy for intersectionality at Behr Psychology assists people in distinguishing between religion and culture for themselves. We frequently see people in relationships who are striving to balance their religion and culture. Our therapists work with clients to overcome relationship problems linked to intersectionality. We will also assist you in resolving any socio-political dynamics that you are encountering.
Working with our psychologists and therapists who understand and address intersectionality provides personalized counseling that respects and addresses the unique challenges you face. Whether you are dealing with discrimination, identity conflicts, or the stress of navigating multiple social identities, we are here to help. Our approach is compassionate, confidential, and always respectful of your experiences.
We offer:
Individual counseling involves one-on-one sessions that focus on your particular experiences and issues linked to intersectionality.
Group therapy provides a safe and supportive environment for exploring shared experiences with others who confront similar issues.
When working with psychologists and therapists at Behr Psychology, you will receive services built on empathy and inclusivity that promote confidence and self-awareness. We are dedicated to helping you navigate the complexities of your identity in a supportive and nurturing environment.
