Moment Psychotherapy was founded in early 2025, a time marked by rapid change, uncertainty, and the continued search for connection in a divided world. Amidst growing emotional fatigue and a deepening need for spaces that honor both individual and collective healing, Moment emerged as a response—a place to take a breath, ground, and reconnect. The name “Moment” honors the power of being fully present – even in chaos – and the right of every individual, especially those pushed to the margins, to claim space, feel safe, and move toward wholeness.
Moment Psychotherapy is built based on below principles:
Embodied Awareness
We honor the profound connection between body and mind—understanding that trauma, stress, and resilience are held not just in thoughts, but in the nervous system and in the body itself. We incorporate somatic awareness into our therapeutic approach, helping you build a deeper alignment with your body.
De-stigmatizing Therapy
We strive to create a space where therapy is seen not as a last resort, but as an empowering and accessible act of self-care. By honoring each person's cultural, emotional, and lived experiences, we work with you to challenge the shame and stereotypes often associated with seeking support—normalizing healing as a courageous and human process.
Intersectionality-Informed Practice
Identity is complex and layered. We approach therapy with an understanding that individuals are deeply shaped by their environments—family, culture, community, systems, and history. We hold space for the ways race, gender, sexuality, immigration status, ability, and other identities intersect that influence your lived experience.
WE ARE HUMAN BEINGS FIRST, THERAPISTS SECOND
We are committed to showing up as a real person first. We connect with you human to human—bringing warmth, authenticity, and a down-to-earth approach that includes humor, personality, and genuine care. While our clinical training guides me, We believe healing happens when you feel seen and heard by someone real—not buried under jargon, but in honest, relatable conversation.
Justice-informed Practice
We are trained with a clear awareness of how systems of oppression—such as racism, sexism, classism, ableism, xenophobia, and homophobia—impact mental health. Our work is guided by a commitment to name, challenge, and unlearn these forces, both within ourselves and in the world around us. We hold space for your healing without separating it from the structural realities you face, offering care that is not only compassionate, but justice-informed.
All services uphold a foundation of anti-racism, anti-oppression, pro-justice for all. All services are inherently trauma-informed in nature and practice.
To anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or alone while navigating life through the lens of their identities—We see you. We hear you. This space was created with you in heart and mind.
