Autism, ADHD, and the African American Community
Oftentimes, in the African American community, we hear the words “Autism” and “ADHD” and immediately negative images come to mind.

My Wellness Journey – Progress Report
ain’t gone lie: I was a bit nervous today before my doc appointment. I have NOT been the most obedient when it comes to my wellness journey. The last 2 weeks have been quite the party 🎉. Nonetheless, I marched into my doctors office, took off my coat, shoes and almost took my bandana off…
Dr. Who, Autism and Aaron
Paul tried to prepare me for my oldest son, Aaron’s, Christmas gift. The only clue he would give me is, “You guys have had a conversation about it.” Christmas Day came.

Learn From the Pain
Pain never feels good. It doesn’t matter the origin; whether it’s biological, psychological, or spiritual, pain is pain. Often, distress becomes like an unwelcome companion in our daily walk. We become used to the hurt, the disappointment, the loneliness, the stress. It may seem like we exist only to FEEL waves of struggle. 2020 is…
Therapy Is Dope
As children, many of us were taught to put other people’s feelings above our own. That has left us in states of confusion and distress as we make decisions for ourselves….based on what other folks think or want us to do. Therapy with the right therapist helps you give your inner child permission to live…
