Welcome to Sixth Street Wellness
Sixth Street Wellness is a collective of therapists who center the experiences of BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities. We have the expertise to help you process the personal and systemic challenges that lead you to seek therapy.
You’ve survived every challenge you’ve ever faced, but that doesn’t mean you have to go through them alone. We can help you draw upon your strengths to grow and move forward—into a life of abundance where you feel rooted in your identity and your truth. Whatever brings you to therapy, come as you are: we’re here to honor your story.
Our therapists offer a broad range of expertise. We provide therapy for individuals and couples, either in person or online, for people based in New York State. Find out more about us and let us know how we can meet your needs.
our story
Inspired by her family roots, our practice gets its name from Stacey Younge’s late Auntie Rah Rah, a social worker with a practice on Sixth Street in Berkeley, California. Stacey founded the collective in 2017, bringing us together as a group of social workers oriented toward social justice.
Our mission was to build a practice that aligned with our skills and values, applying an integrated approach to well-being. To us, that meant creating and holding space for our clients and each other, understanding and dismantling the influences of history and society on mental health challenges, respecting community wisdom and personal intuition, and evolving with intention toward lives of abundance.
