Providing individual, group, and family mental health and addiction therapy to help you recover from

Community involvement happens in many forms.

It may mean co-facilitating a forum with current and potential city council members around housing, neighborhood development, and transportation.

It may mean mentoring, volunteering, or supporting organizations that support others.

It may mean choosing an issue you care about and bringing it out of the shadows.

Whatever it is, don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty or feelings hurt.

Because it’s borderline impossible to make a difference without doing a little bit of both.

As a clinical social worker, I know therapy can help develop strong mental health.

But for it to truly work, we have to start at helping people address their basic needs.

Partnering with CrossRoads in Grier Heights to support the development of the next generation of men academically, professionally, and holistically.

We focused on attachment, connection, and generational healing Monday night, a subject that I’ve spent nearly 20 years facilitating with grown adults, many who are already parents, only to hear often them say at the end, “I wish I understood this earlier.”

The only appropriate response:
Why don’t we start teaching it to the next generation earlier and give them a head start?

Our team has been in the community carrying the message.

A few weeks ago, I got the chance to share the stage with Cliff at the NAACP National convention talking all things mental health.

As a veteran, ordained minister who is affirming and has experience working with the full range of people from corporations to the Mecklenburg County Jail, Cliff brings not only a wealth of knowledge but a unique presence and comfort in addressing the uncomfortable.

Be on the lookout for more of him in the community in the upcoming year and feel free to reach out yourself.

Stephanie and I had a great time partnering with Mecklenburg County Community Support Services team at their all staff retreat sound with in the space of emotional regulation in tumultuous times.

We helped people understand how we experience trauma, stress, addiction move through the body while providing body practices people could use to regulate themselves. Stephanie then did a breakout body practice session with a separate group afterwards.

Thankful for the work of the CSS and team glad to collaborate in supporting their restoration.

🔷 Whether in the office or in the community, one of the things I love about our team is that we truly believe in meeting people where they are in order to help them get to where they are trying to go.

🔷 Shout out to Staisha Hamilton for carrying the message in her sphere of influence, tapping into her talents of dance/movement, grounding, and working intentionally towards purpose in the face of adversity, at the Dance Realm Exchange Dance Educator Conference July 29-31

🔷 Getting to have 1, let alone multiple sessions facilitated by her is an incredible opportunity that you don’t want to miss.

Stay tuned, as we may have some coming up in the not so distant future…

Big Ups Staisha!

Operate in your sphere of influence.

The recovery community in many ways represents some of the best of what we can be in society, providing a space for connection and the chance to realize we aren’t defined by the worst of our decisions.

And yet, it also shines a light on some of our greatest inequities: who gets treatment vs jail; whose pain is highlighted vs glossed over/minimized.

Glad to have the opportunity on Recovery Awareness Day with the The Blanchard Institute to use my 20+ years in the field serving a wide range of communities to highlight these disparities, while also challenging those of us in the field to do better, offering a constructive way forward.

If we say we are going to treat the whole person, we must first learn how to truly see the whole person.

Juneteenth is about liberation from slavery.

If we are going to be fully liberated, then it requires revealing a more total truth.

The 13th amendment abolished slavery, EXCEPT in the case of a crime where someone has been duly convicted.

From Jim Crow and convict leasing to mass incarceration, bo***ge has been repackaged, but not eliminated.

And even after completing a sentence, many returning citizens battle second class status based on barriers that remain.

Gemini Boyd of Project BOLT is committed to a more full liberation for justice impacted siblings upon return.

Perry Counseling Healing and Recovery teammate Cliff Matthews facilitated a powerful session on mental health, childhood trauma, and healing for Black men at Project Bolt’s Men’s Summit.

Cliff is uniquely gifted facilitator as a clinician with experience working in the jails while simultaneously having experience speaking as a minister committed to social justice.

Eyes were opened, stigma was lifted, and another step towards true liberation was taken.

Stay connected to Project BOLT and JustinPerryCounseling.

More steps to come. ✊🏾
