In this conversation, Olufunmiké and Porschia share why it felt so important to create a postpartum space specifically for BIPOC mothers—one rooted in cultural understanding, safety, and real support during a deeply vulnerable time.

Postpartum care isn’t one-size-fits-all. And every mother deserves a space where her experience is held with nuance and respect,

If this resonates, we see you 💛

In honor of Women’s History Month, we’re celebrating the women behind Tala — and every woman who has trusted us with her healing. 🌸

We built this practice because we believe every woman deserves a space where she doesn’t have to shrink, explain, or translate herself to feel cared for. A space that honors her culture, her language, and the fullness of who she is.

That vision lives in this team. Women of color, showing up every day to hold space for our community — with warmth, with understanding, and with deep respect for every story that walks through our doors.

To every woman finding her way to healing — we see you, we celebrate you, and we are here for you. Always. 🤎💫

Intensive work, held with care — Bookings are now open

Beginning March 16th, Junie Abito () is opening a small number of virtual, intensive therapy spaces at Tala Mental Health.

These offerings come from years of practice, listening, and building—what began as Rose Junie Therapy and grew into Tala: a practice rooted in awareness, depth, and integrity.

Two distinct paths, each held slowly and intentionally:

🌿 5-Day EMDR Intensives
For those ready to meet what’s been living beneath the surface—trauma, anxiety, memories the body hasn’t finished processing yet.
Not rushed. Not forced.
At the root.

🤍 3-Day Couples Intensives
For couples standing at a crossroads.
Not to fix. Not to convince.
But to slow down, tell the truth, and find clarity about what comes next.

This work is personally facilitated by Junie and shaped around each person who enters.

Limited availability, scheduling now open
Intensives begin March 16th
All sessions will be conducted virtually*

Take your time.
This work will meet you there.

We are more than a therapy office. We are a safe and protected space for healing—one where your voice is respected and your wellbeing is our priority.

ICE is not permitted in our offices, and we are intentional about creating an environment where clients can seek care without fear.

In support of our community, we offer Know Your Rights materials and immigrant resources. Red Cards are available in person at our offices, and additional resources can be accessed through our website or through our ig highlight.

We believe meaningful mental health care includes both emotional support and practical, real-world resources.

Whether you are navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, or the stress of uncertainty, we are here with you. Our work is rooted in culturally responsive, evidence-based care, with the goal that every client feels safe, supported, and empowered throughout their healing process.
