Hi there, my name is Sequoyah, and I'm a licensed clinical psychotherapist, consultant, storyteller, and author.I joined the mental health and therapy field because I felt my family and community lacked a space to discuss life’s trials and tribulations. A space that allowed them to be authentically themselves!
We didn’t have it, so I helped to create it. I am proud to say that I am a Co-Founder and the COO of an Outpatient Mental Health Clinic in Maryland called Solid Ground Wellness. Our clinic provides various services, including therapy, psychiatric rehabilitation, and psychiatry, to clients of all ages from 5 to 99 years old. Our goal is to elevate the standard of self-care and provide quality mental health services to our community.
I am also the Founder and CEO of Onmycouchhh, a wellness collective founded with the black community in mind. Our focus is holistic healing through storytelling, community building, and connecting. Through our conscious events, apparel, therapeutic services, consulting and books we look to educate, empower, and connect to dismantle the stigma surrounding mental health in the black community.
What sets me apart from others is my compassion for people, my love for my community, and my ability to make others feel seen and heard. As a black female therapist, I'm proud to provide culturally competent care, which I believe is my superpower. I'm passionate about breaking down barriers and addressing the unique mental health needs of the black community, and I'm honored to be able to do so through my work.
