The most valuable part of the program for me was that I learned to not be ashamed of my views and to accept myself based on what I need and not what others think of me. I learned that some individuals in our community needs healing from the horrible stuff that has happened to our people. I think that Black people can benefit from programs like this but must be willing to take a change and give it a try.

I was able to reflect and understand that I could let go and learn from it. Experiencing acceptance, knowing that what I experienced was real and it was ok to feel sad and angry about it. Taking time to heal from the wounds on the past to help me move forward. This is a great space that is safe, to share and grow and receive positive guide for a way forward. Sharing the journey with others made it also a great experience.

Dr. Alicia I am very inspired by you and I know we will work together. You have that trust factor.I saw that in you and I think it will go far in this virtual space. Especially among Black people whom I didn't encounter in my therapy sessions. I recall three very impactful therapists who happen to be Black women. I don't think you realize how necessary or maybe you do. I hope you do because these programs are going to take off. Thank you for training and nurturing the upcoming graduates of your college program.
