At Asheville Family Counseling (AFC), we recognize that the land we call home and work on rightfully belongs to the Cherokee people (ᏣᎳᎫᏪᏘᏱ Tsalaguwetiyi). We honor this land and its custodians throughout history, in the present, and for generations to come. We urge you to learn more about the land you reside on by visiting native-land.ca, while also taking time to contemplate your role in reconciliation, fostering meaningful connections, and nurturing the environment.

AFC is an anti-racist and LGBTQIA+ affirming practice. We recognize the urgent need for change in our society, and we’re committed to being active participants in dismantling systems of oppression and inequality. We acknowledge that these systems are deeply rooted in capitalism, colonialism, patriarchy, racism, heteronormativity, and white supremacy. We’re actively committed to creating a more just and equitable society. We appreciate that this work is ongoing and that we may make mistakes. We pledge to continuously learn and grow in our efforts to promote anti-racism and decolonization.
