THrive is NOT Therapy, It's Restoritive Justice in the Body

I created Ready, Set, THrive! LLC in 2016 using a holistic embodied womanist lens. As a THrive practitioner I offer culturally specific and body-centered practices to explore racialized adversities and lived experiences of trauma caused by race, class, identity, genocide, and historical grief/shame. THrive® is NOT therapy, because you are not difficult, “broken", "defective,” or damaged goods.

Embrace THriving as your Birthright

I work with Black/ Brown women & BIPOC youth to embrace THriving as a birthright and authentic state of being. I created THrive® using a range of practices ranging from somatic movement to black wellness.

What does choice feel like in the body?

By addressing our unconscious pain – bodies, we can also begin to identify holding patterns locked in our hearts, psyches and soul. When we are THriving our bodies promotes a felt-sense of liberation and joy from within. We heal individually when we heal our relations with our selves. We heal communally when we heal our relations between each other, and the earth we share.

What People are Saying

"Working with Keita was a beautiful experience... During my session, things came up from my past that totally related to my current life experience. Keita stayed present with me as a guide and helped me as I found clarity in what I needed as I journeyed through self- awareness to a place of rejuvenation. Much love to you Keita!"

“As a clinician myself in the area it can be hard to find the right connection when my own need for therapy arises. Wow, I felt like I hit the jackpot on our first session. Keita takes the time to check in on all levels, cognitively, emotionally, energetically and this makes the work fast and profound. I would recommend her to my closest family and friends and at times I have.”

Highly recommend working with Keita! The educational, facilitated group work that Keita led, that I was a part of some years ago, has stayed with me in profound ways. Her work has so positively influenced my teaching, my friendships and my community work. Thank you for the work you do in the world, Keita!

As a black man today I am subjected to dysfunctional family dynamics and systematic racism. … you made me aware of family toxicity and how specific behaviors originated from slavery .Learning this feels as if a big weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Definitely feels like I’m taking the right steps to heal and love myself…

Working with Keita Whitten helps me as a black man because it’s not the typical Approach to counseling and psychiatry that you go through in white society. I’m not being prescribed pills or put into any system. It feels good to be able to talk to someone that looks like me and who also has young black sons like me. Thank you Sister Keita!~
