Liana Maneese
(she/they)About Liana
I am a mother first and believe all the children belong to us all to care for. I am a creative, historian, writer, and identity navigation specialist working in the clinical mental health space. I am passionate about our pasts, our brains, anti-racism, justice, relationships, and identity. I received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health and Applied Psychology from Antioch New England. I like to take big-picture societal and systemic issues and ground them down to our everyday experiences. I believe that building strong, equitable, and informed relationships, with ourselves first, can begin to shift toxic societal narratives that have created cycles of trauma and suffering for far too long. I practice a theoretical specialty in Liberation Psychotherapy. I am a transracially internationally adopted person who identifies as an Afro-Brazilian, Black American Cis Queer Adoptee. I prioritize working with BIPOC due to the low representation available systemically to receive proper care.
