Sodah Minty

PsyD

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with experience in a variety of settings including community mental health, university counseling and end-of-life psychotherapy. My clinical focus includes Grief and Loss: Society pushes us to grieve alone. Grief is not a linear process. We must remove the expectation that loss means we need to “feel better” and “move on”. I hope to be able to help you integrate the reality of your loss into your life. I believe that the relationship with your loved one can remain strong and can inform your living. Systemic Oppression, Race, Trauma: I practice from a feminist, decolonial, and relational lens. I am committed to advocating for those who feel "othered" by their identities. As an immigrant and a person of color, I have felt the strain of acculturative stress, systemic injustice. The current framework of "mental illness" tells us that we are the problem. You are not the problem. I hope to be able to liberate your suffering by engaging your inherent worthiness and enhancing your access to spaces that allow you to feel authentic and safe (rather than deficient, alone, wrong).
