Getting to know Gia Stark

Thank you for reading this. Having a background in grassroots and non-profit work as well as teaching, I am fiercely passionate about equity, social justice, and liberation for all people. I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies, which has deepened my commitment to these values. The therapeutic relationship is unique and radical—your words have exquisite power, and together we get to think about what they mean. Talk therapy offers us the chance to explore who you are, what has happened to you, and how you want your life to look. Regarding relationships and patterns, we will grapple with what to hold on to and what to discard, breathing possibility back into your way of being. I believe that what ails you points to how you have embodied the collective suffering of society. Perhaps you carry the psychic wounds of colonization and globalization. Or maybe it is challenging for you to find where you belong in the frenetic pace of our time. Whatever brings you here, I hope to have the opportunity to sit and listen to you.
