[Health & Sexuality Info](/health-info)# Justice-Oriented Directory of Therapists for Black and Brown Folks

Cultivated specifically for Black and Brown people, this directory of therapists includes those who have completed training in a Liberation-Focused Healing framework developed by Shawna Murray-Browne, founder of Kindred Wellness, LLC and have participated in a collective learning process focused on decolonizing mental health care and wellness.

> Therapy That Liberates features therapists and other healing practitioners who are committed to the liberation of black and brown people. It was created as a response to the Baltimore grassroots community requesting mental health professionals and healers that understand and honor the experiences of black and brown people in their work.
