Marshaé A. Sylvester (she/they)

Welcome, I am so glad you are here. As a Black, queer, woman in a blended multicultural family, I bring both personal and professional commitment to creating a therapeutic space that honors your whole self. My work is grounded in a deep respect for the resilience and complexity of people navigating marginalization, identity, and transformation. I believe healing happens in relationship—both with others and with ourselves and that therapy can be a sacred space where we remember, reclaim, and reimagine our lives in liberating ways.

My training in psychotherapy, self-psychology, and trauma-informed relational therapy shapes my approach to care. I support clients in moving trauma and stress out of the body through somatic integration, recognizing that our bodies store our stories and our ancestral histories. I am body- and sex-positive, and I hold affirming space for multiethnic, LGBTQ+, and polyamorous relationships. My work is deeply influenced by decolonial healing practices that center ancestral wisdom and lived experience as vital sources of knowledge and strength.

I also offer spiritual integration for those who want to weave their spiritual paths into their healing process. Whether you’re reconnecting with long-held beliefs or exploring new dimensions of your spirituality, I hold a nonjudgmental and open space for that journey. My clinical and academic and clinical training allow me to meet you at the crossroads of mind, body, and spirit.
