they/them
I'm Veronica, and some of the ways I locate myself in space are through my identities and experiences navigating the world within that evolving constellation. Some fixed aspects of Self include grounding in a Black Indigenous Chinese and Caribbean upbringing with a diverse ancestral plane; reconnecting to BIPOC, queer identity in young adulthood; connecting more deeply to nonbinary indigenous identity in adulthood; and reflecting anti-oppressive healing frameworks in my own communities and professional practice to help dismantle the stats on mental health outcomes.
VNC Therapy New York was founded to provide a healing space for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ humans to reconnect with their identities and explore new pathways to pleasure in a radically affirming and expansive way. Some of the healing has included dismantling ideas around perfectionism, entitlement, and oppression that may be specific to AAPI, BIPOC, Latinx, LGBQAI+ and TGNC communities and which show up intersectionally to create unique barriers to pleasure.
I'm elated to connect with others in the Embodied Private Practice Cohort navigating how to honor our individual capacities and pain points, respond to these evolving global crises with new healing frameworks, and still leave time for inner child play and cultivating new homeostasis!
