Therapy by people
who get it — because
they live it.

Path2Peace connects clients from marginalized communities with therapists who don't just understand your intersectionalities — they share them.

"I want to live the rest of my life, however long or short, with as much sweetness as I can decently manage, loving all the people I love, and doing as much as I can of the work I still have to do."
— Audre Lorde

You deserve a therapist who lives your truth

Mainstream mental health care was not built for everyone. Marginalized communities often face the additional burden of educating their therapist about their own lives — and that burden gets in the way of healing.


At Path2Peace, we believe every person deserves a clinician who brings genuine, lived understanding — not just cultural competency training. We use the word communities intentionally, because every identity we serve represents a community with power, beauty, and resilience.


Our practice is fully telehealth, Colorado-based, and rooted in affirming, intersectional care.

Building the practice I wish had existed

I am Shana Dobson, also known as Shana "Danger" Dobson, former UFC fighter. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor that has navigated marginalization in athletic, social, and mental health related spaces. I knew firsthand the importance of mental health community and support, being a Black, queer, neurodiverse, masculine presenting, first generation American with Jamaican roots.

As a proud professional athlete, I understand what it means to exist at the intersection of multiple identities in spaces that were not always built for you. That knowledge is not incidental to my clinical work — it is central to it. Path2Peace is a space that not only acknowledges these realities, but supports and empowers the communities impacted by them.

I created Path2Peace because I know what it feels like to walk into a space and immediately wonder whether you're truly welcome there. This practice is my answer to that feeling: a fully telehealth practice in Colorado built on the belief that clients from marginalized communities deserve therapists who share their lived experience — not just clinicians who've attended a training about them.

This practice is growing, and I'm excited to connect with clients who are ready to begin their journey and therapists who are ready to practice in a space that honors everything they are.

Black & BIPOC Communities First-Gen Professionals Structural Family Therapy CBT & Solution-Focused

Healing begins when you feel truly seen

Jor’rdan believes healing begins when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. As a Black therapist who grew up in Denver’s Park Hill neighborhood, she understands many of the cultural, systemic, and generational barriers that can make asking for help feel difficult. Growing up in a diverse community shaped her passion for advocating for mental health, reducing stigma, and creating spaces where individuals from marginalized communities feel safe enough to show up as their authentic selves.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate (LMFT-C) and Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC), Jor’rdan’s therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based. She primarily practices from a Structural Family Therapy lens while integrating Solution-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients better understand themselves, strengthen relationships, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and build practical skills for lasting change. She enjoys working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, grief, relationship challenges, self-esteem, identity development, and family conflict — and is especially passionate about serving BIPOC communities, young adults, and first-generation professionals.

Jor’rdan is also the founder of Potential With Purpose Wellness Collective, where she created a Community Wellness Sponsorship Program providing free therapy to five individuals every six weeks to those committed to their healing journey. Giving back to the community and increasing access to quality mental health care are at the heart of everything she does.

Northern India · Diverse Background Ph.D. in Psychology (In Progress) CBT & DBT

A warm, culturally sensitive space to feel understood

Are you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that drain your energy? When navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or a major life transition, it can easily feel like you're carrying the heavy weight completely alone. Mehul believes every individual has a unique story, and true healing begins when you feel deeply understood, safe, and supported. She provides a warm, compassionate, and culturally sensitive space — both in-person in Parker and online across Colorado — where you can step away from the chaos, process your emotions, and regain control. She specializes in anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, emotional regulation, and adjusting to major life changes, blending CBT and DBT to help clients build evidence-based, actionable skills and see real, week-to-week progress. While Mehul represents these particular intersectionalities, she remains passionate about supporting the mental health needs of all marginalized communities.

Mehul is a woman from Northern India who brings a richly diverse cultural background and global clinical perspective to her work. She is currently completing her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at SGT University in India, building on a Professional Diploma in Clinical Psychology, an M.A. in Clinical Psychology, and a B.A. (Hons) in Applied Psychology from Amity University. Her three years of clinical experience span both psychological evaluation and counseling — including serving as Lead Clinical Psychologist at The Child Centre in New Delhi, where she conducted psychological assessments and CBT-based interventions for children with developmental, behavioral, and emotional disorders; as a Clinical Associate Psychologist (Supervised) at Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, delivering structured psychotherapy and psychological testing within a multidisciplinary hospital care team; and as a Mental Health Counselor with Khushii NGO, providing tele-counseling and mental health support to underserved children and families.

Mehul brings this full breadth of clinical training, lived cultural experience, and global perspective into every session — meeting each client with warmth, curiosity, and a steady, collaborative path toward lasting change.
