I’m no longer accepting male clients. They get in my email inbox and want me to prove why they should choose me as a therapist.
No scheduled consultations or nothing to see if we are a good fit. I’m not the 1 or the 2 to prove my worth to anyone.
We would not work well…

It’s the folks tone policing me. I tweet like I talk. I talk this way in therapy with my clients.
That’s the whole point of being a Black therapist. So Black folks can be themselves. Ain’t no code switching over here!

Well..
People hate when you set boundaries with them.
“How dare you tell me to stop doing something that’s harming you!”

Not a therapist but I stopped taking on male clients years ago. They’re always trying to get over and make you prove yourself! Like sir, you hired ME? You did good setting this boundary.

Y’all really need to stop getting on the internet talking like this. Journal or save these thoughts for your own therapist.
My therapist is a black woman, best I’ve ever had, but the way some of you get on here talking I’d miss out on her if I let the tweets cloud my judgment.

Sis! Set your boundaries & stand on them. What a lot of people don’t know is that their assumptions of you based off of this tweet are based in projection and their own personal lived/experiences. You have a right to protect yourself! Happy for you. Sending loveeee!
