Drjameca Emergence Psychological Services was founded by Dr. Jameca Woody Cooper in Saint Louis Missouri.

Career Highlights: After teaching psychology, Dr. Woody Cooper launched her own psychotherapy practice in 2006. This has allowed her the privileged opportunity to meet and cultivate lifelong relationships with the citizens of Saint Louis, MO. Dr. Woody Cooper received an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Tougaloo College in 1996, a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1998, and her Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology also from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 2002.

So honored to be featured in Essence’s piece, “Expat Diaries: Black Women Aging Abroad Are Embracing The Power Of Communal Living.”

In the article, I shared my perspective on the healing power of community on our mental health, physical health, and even longevity. For Black women especially, aging together in supportive, communal spaces is more than companionship, it’s cultural, restorative, and life-affirming.

Grateful to contribute to this conversation about wellness, belonging, and what it truly means to thrive as we age.

You can see a bruise. You can’t see PTSD.
And that’s why emotional trauma from police brutality is so often undervalued in court.

I help attorneys change that.
By linking police violence to measurable psychological and physical impacts, we can transform invisible suffering into undeniable evidence—raising settlements, shifting policies, and giving clients true validation.

He wasn’t just pushed out of a job. He was traumatized.
🧠⚖️ Racial trauma is real — and it’s legally relevant.

Missouri lawyers, are you missing out on major settlement leverage by treating racial discrimination like it’s just a paperwork issue?

📈 With EEOC charges climbing and historic settlements stacking up, it’s time to shift your legal lens:
🧾 Frame racial harm as trauma
📎 Use local data
📢 Demand employer-funded therapy

🔥 The blog breaks down 3 winning legal strategies and shows how emotional damages = powerfully persuasive settlements.

🧠 What if a witness’s “nervousness” or “lack of eye contact” wasn’t dishonesty - but trauma?

In high-stakes courtrooms, credibility can make or break a case. But for many Black and Brown individuals, racial trauma can alter how they present, often in ways that legal professionals misread.

In my latest article, I break down:

🔍 how racial trauma shows up in witness testimony
⚖️ why traditional measures of credibility often fail traumatized individuals
📚 what attorneys and expert witnesses must understand to ensure fairness and justice

If you're working in any legal or mental health role tied to the justice system, this is required reading.
