  VICTORIA Earlier this year, Felicia Mazerolle started the “BIPOC Therapy Fund,” which aims to provide a year of free counselling services to 10 people who are Black, Indigenous or people of colour (BIPOC). The idea came to Mazerolle over the summer, after months of being bombarded by news and social media posts about the death of George Floyd and other highly publicized deaths of people of colour. Mazerolle had also been in several situations where she was racially profiled and a victim of racism. Feeling emotionally overwhelmed by it all, she decided to seek counselling. “It really put me in a dark space,” she says. “I started looking for a therapist and found out that it’s pretty hard to find a therapist of colour – which was important for me at the time – and it’s really unaffordable. It’s a luxury really.”
