THERAPY FOR BLACK AND BROWN
MILENNIALS AND GEN Z ADULTS
READY FOR "REAL" CONNECTIONS
You’re self-aware.
You’ve done a ton of reflecting.
You might even be "the one who has it all together” with your friends.
And STILL relationships still feel harder than they should!
​
If you’re tired of repeating the same patterns and want real change (not just coping tips), you’re in the right place!
​
I'm Marcelle, a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for people in California and Texas. I offer trauma-informed, relationship-focused therapy for Black and Brown Millennials and Gen Z adults who want to be in strong, healthy relationships without losing themselves.
You're not bad at relationships.
Yes, you might be:
-
overthinking your text messages or spending way too much time playing detective with others' responses.
-
giving so much in your relationships with others only to be let down when they don't show up for you as you hoped.
-
exhausted trying to meet the expectations everyone seems to have for you.
-
noticing that it feels better to keep people at a distance even though, deep down, you're feeling pretty lonely.
-
feeling like your internal clock to “heal” is constantly ringing an alarm but things aren't changing.
-
not feeling accepted for who you are.
-
having trouble identifying who you even are at this point in your life.
I get it. Many of us have felt that way.
This didn’t start with you but we do have the power to shift it from how you did things "pre-therapy" to the you that's feeling "cool, calm, and collected" with others now.
Let's get you back to showing up for yourself and in relationships that actually feel good!
​
​
What therapy looks like here:
My work with you is collaborative, empathetic, and trauma-informed. We work at your speed to address the concerns that you're having with others and how you feel about yourself, where this comes from, and what you want for future you. We don’t just talk about your relationships. We explore what’s happening underneath them.​
​
This approach is a good fit if you:
-
want to understand why patterns keep showing up
-
are open to reflection and emotional work
-
are ready to invest in your healing
​
This space is affirming, culturally responsive, and grounded in care with room for honesty, curiosity, and growth.

Meet Marcelle:
I’m Marcelle, a licensed therapist with extensive training in trauma and relationship work. I specialize in supporting Black and Brown Millennials and Gen Z adults navigating identity, intimacy, and connection.
​
Many of my clients will tell you that I'm warm and direct. I try not to be blunt but I am going to have you looking at some things that you might have ignored. One of the things I speak to people about is how to be empathetic and compassionate while balancing accountability.
This space is supportive and honest, where you will be encouraged not to perform or minimize your experience. Of course, this process happens at your own pace but I'm always excited to learn about the real you!
​
Through the laughs and maybe some tears, we'll have you on track towards self-acceptance and authentic connections.
