Healing & Centering Ourselves
Honoring our lived experience and our connection to mind, body, & spirit
Hello Hello Beautiful Humans
Welcome
The WHOLE-Self Healing Institute, Inc. (TWSHI) is a mental health non-profit providing support for post-traumatic growth & healing with trauma-informed, pleasure-affirming, and integrative care practices centering queer & non-queer Black & of Color women, femmes, & ENBY folks' sexual well-being & WHOLE-Self healing.
What We Do
Mission
Led by trauma-informed clinical somatic sexologist who focuses on centering queer and non-queer Black women, femmes, and non-binary trauma survivors, TWSHI's mission is to help queer and non-queer trauma survivors develop healing-centered mind-body care practices, strategies, and frameworks. We aim to support them in healing and returning to wholeness in the face of their post-traumatic stress symptoms.
We achieve our mission by curating accessible and high-quality mental health and somatic healing workshops, coaching, support groups, and professional development instruction that cultivate opportunities to establish embodied safety and overall well-being. Our focus is on fostering self-trust to facilitate WHOLE-Self healing and sexual wellness.
Committed to equitable access, TWSHI ensures trauma-informed mental health and comprehensive sexuality education that provides steadfast post-traumatic growth and support for sexual healing and WHOLE-Self well-being.
Vision
Honoring the intuitive relationship between mind, body, & spirit, TWSHI reclaims the sacred relationship between sexuality, spirituality, in addition to, the indigenous healing arts and practices rooted from Continental and Disaporic African, Turtle Island, East Asian, and South Asian and Pacific cultures. This reclamation allows for an empowered, spirit-inclusive, pleasure-filled, and uninhibited relationship with the WHOLE-self and one's embodiment of desirability, pleasure, power, healing, and wellness.
While we center the erotic lived experience of Black and of Color women, femmes, and non-binary folks- our services support those who want to heal their relationship to their Self, their intutition, for the purpose of their sexual well-being and WHOLE-Self healing.

We Value
Pleasure
Individual & Collective Healing
Pleasure
Pleasure-activism is not just wordplay. It is how we live and what we embody. Pleasure is our birthright and we are here to reclaim it.
Joy
Individual & Collective Healing
Pleasure
Joy is the secret sauce to the resiliency of Black and oppressed people-worldview. When examined in queer culture, joy is tranformational for both the mind and the body. We tap into joy as our north star in the journey of healing.

We don't heal alone. Healing is individually driven and community supported. Creating community honors intuitive, generational, and ancestral wisdom. All are central to healing. The communal healing is critical to one’s ability to thrive.
