Getting to know Athena Turek

I believe that therapy works best if we can build a trusting relationship together, and so you should know a little about who I am as a person and therapist. I am a biracial, Pinoy, queer fem from a working class background. I am areligious, but find spirituality in nature and am deeply curious about how we as humans navigate relationships to land, community, and ancestors/transcestors. I believe in dismantling oppression everywhere, including the therapy space, and so strive to keep learning and integrating knowledge from collective liberation movements. I orient toward decolonization, transformative justice, and intersectional feminism. I am inspired and continue to learn from models of care offered by disability justice activists. I am sex-positive, trans affirming, polyamory and kink informed, pro-SW, and body neutral/Health at Every Size-aligned. I find joy in dance, spending time in nature and with loved ones, urban farming, art making, and traveling. I love learning languages and about different cultures (especially when it means trying new foods), and am currently diving into Spanish and Tagalog (the latter with the hopes of one day not having my lola laugh at my pronunciation).
