THERAPY FOR WOMEN OF COLOR & GENDER NON-CONFORMING PEOPLE OF COLOR
A Place You Are Heard and Held with Kindness
You feel overwhelmed and tired of holding everything alone.
You might be processing a recent loss and feeling waves of emotion as you adjust to a new normal.
Or maybe you are mixed race, mutliracial, or biracial and find yourself desiring to process your identity to more deeply understand your experience and feel more confident and connected to who you are.
​
If you are processing religious trauma you might feel confused as you discover what it means to define your values and beliefs outside of a harmful system. ​However you find yourself here, you do not have to hold what you are going through alone.
Together, we will make space for what is weighing you down and help you feel more clear, connected, and grounded in who you are and your experience. I offer online therapy to women of color and gender queer people of color in Beacon Hill, U-District, Ballard, Seattle, across Washington state, and all across California.
Hi, I'm Ali Pagán Williams!
Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Washington & California
I believe that healing and relief happen when you are no longer holding the weight of what you are carrying by yourself.
I am passionate about supporting women and gender non-conforming people of color on their journeys towards a more grounded understanding of themselves and the lives they want to lead.
Work with me is deeply relational and trauma-informed. We will pay attention to both your body and mind. I specialize in grief, multiracial identity work, and religious trauma.
We go at your pace and always listen to what works best for you. I also hear what you share with an understanding of the impact systems and environments have on you.
I am trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy which is an approach that believes you are inherently good inside and all of your feelings and experiences are valid and deserve to take up space and be heard. You can learn more about me and my approach here.
How to Begin Therapy
Book a Free Consultation
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation for those interested in individual therapy and located in Beacon Hill, U-District, Ballard, Seattle, Washington or California. This is a chance for both of us to explore if this is a good fit.
Build a Foundation
In our first session we will explore what you are currently wanting support with in therapy. It is important that our therapeutic relationship feels like a space you can trust, so the beginning of our work helps you build that foundation with me.
Support Tailored to You
I don't believe in a one-size fits all therapy approach, so our work will be shaped by who you uniquely are and what you are bring. We will listen and pay attention to where your body, inner wisdom, and needs are guiding us. As you have a space to process what you are holding you will notice things feel lighter.
Live From Your Inner Wisdom
My hope for our work is that you have a space to listen more deeply to your inner knowing and understand yourself with kindness. Receiving and relating to yourself with compassion and curiosity will empower you to live and relate to yourself and others with more confidence, authenticity, and ease.
