Meet Maverick Pascal, a multidisciplinary artist whose bold lines, metallic acrylics, and fragmented designs tell a story of healing, self-discovery, and inner child connection.

Keep evolving, sis.
You are not required to shrink yourself to keep the peace.
You are not meant to soften your truth for someone else’s comfort.
Your boundaries are not up for debate.
They are the sacred edges of your growth.

💜 At Purple Couch Therapy, we support Black women and femmes in reclaiming their voice, their space, and their softness — without apology.

You’re doing everything “right”… and it’s still heavy.
The degree. The job. The healing.
The awareness. The growth.
But inside, you’re tired.
Anxious. Overwhelmed.
And wondering if you’re the only one who feels behind.
Valencia gets it.
She holds space for young adults who were taught how to succeed but never taught how to feel.

💜 Therapy with Valencia is not another productivity hack.
It’s a soft place to land.

A space to rage. To cry. To question. To be.
If you’re navigating an unconventional path and craving real support—not pressure—this space is for you.

It’s back-to-school season and if your household is already feeling the shift — I want you to meet Nat.
Nat is a family space holder. She works with youth, teens, and parents — and connects with young folks through play, creativity, and care. That’s why I trust her as a therapist.
But Nat doesn’t stop there. She supports parents, too — helping them understand their story and their child’s.
If you’re trying to reconnect with your kid…
If communication is hard right now…
If you’re noticing big feelings and don’t know what to do…
Nat is the therapist for you.

“We can’t even imagine that we might get better — with ease.”
We’ve been taught that pain is the price of progress. That we must struggle our way into transformation. But what if healing could come from softness, not suffering? Experiencing softness is so painful because most of us never got it.

At Purple Couch Therapy, we don’t give you “tough love.” Tough love is colonial. We have no idea that compassion is what heals. The desire to relieve suffering.
💜 Healing doesn't have to hurt. The pain is clean. It should always be rooted in safety and slowness.

“I admire your strength. Not the kind the world demands—but the kind that listens and honors your humanity.” 💜
Asking for help is so hard in a hard world.
At Purple Couch Therapy, we support our community in navigating tunnels of grief, exploitation, trauma, and identity with a different kind of strength. One that doesn’t rush healing but walks beside you with care.
You don’t have to do this alone. We’re here. And we see you.

“Our work is not antiracism training. Our work is healing what racism planted inside of us.”
We did not create racism.
We should not be asked to carry the full burden of dismantling it.
Our work is to name the harm.
To stop minimizing the ways racism shaped how we see ourselves.
To uproot the internalized shame, silence, and survival strategies.
That is our work — and we get to do it on our terms.

💜 Healing is not about being digestible. It’s about being free.

Not everyone will understand your healing. Growth can feel like betrayal to those who benefited from your silence, your smallness, your survival. But transformation is not a betrayal — it’s a reclamation.
💜 You’re allowed to evolve. Loudly. Softly. Unapologetically.
💜 Change is a form of resistance.
💜 And yes, some people will leave — and that’s not your loss.

Share this if someone tried to shame your growth.

The place I practice from—
I center Blackness. Blackness is in embedded in the environment. Whether you like it or not.

I don’t have to honor BIPOC mental health month because this is a thing we practice on a daily 24/7.

And let me tell you… weird things happen in people’s bodies when you say you only want to center Black mental health.

It’s fascinating.
It’s appalling.
It’s revealing.
It shouldn’t be this exhausting sheesh.

Even Black folks have told me I shouldn’t focus on Black mental health.

Every time, my system is shocked.
Every time, I remember how deep anti-Blackness is rooted in our environment.

This is why I do what I do.
Because Black mental health is not optional.
It’s essential today.

Much care,
Jess

For my chronic people pleasers:
I told y’all before — chronic people pleasing is codependency. It’s that deep habit of putting everyone else’s needs before yours because somewhere you learned you couldn’t depend on anybody, so you became everybody’s safe place but your own. This is a very old, old, wound inside of us.

This hits my eldest daughter clients the hardest. The guilt you feel when you start choosing you? That guilt is a sign you’re tending to the community inside yourself first.

You can’t be in true community with others if you abandon your own. People pleasing and codependency ain’t community — it’s just fake love in a costume.

Practice choosing you. Even if you feel guilty.

Love,
Jess 💜
