About Aliya - Vibrant Life Therapy

About Aaliyah

I’m a biracial Black and white therapist offering trauma-informed, culturally responsive care grounded in relational and analytic work.
I specialize in biracial and multiracial identity development, and work with transracial adoptees navigating attachment, belonging, and racialized trauma. In therapy, we look closely at how identity is shaped over time through early attachment, family systems, and the social realities of race and power. We examine the narratives you’ve internalized, the relational dynamics that continue to show up, and how trauma may be held both cognitively and somatically.
This exploration is collaborative and grounded in emotional attunement, with the goal of supporting a more integrated and self-defined sense of who you are. My style is collaborative, reflective, and depth-oriented. I prioritize creating a space where identity work can unfold with nuance and care.I would be honored to support you in this work.
I am not currently accepting new clients. Waitlist available.
