Chris-Marie Mensah

Hi everyone! My name is Chris-Marie Mensah and I am currently pursuing my Master’s in Clinical Counseling. During college, I began to see the need for a Black mental health counselor which is the reason I chose my graduate school program. I am passionate about social justice, and my main goal in life is to help young black girls and boys who need it.    I am 23 years old. I was born in Ghana, West Africa, but I have lived in the States for about 20 years. I am also passionate about normalizing conversations about mental health, anxiety, depression, etc especially amongst people of color. Personally dealing with these struggles, and finding ways as well as learning in school has pushed me to build a platform. Make sure to check out my YouTube Channel @ Chris-Marie Mensah. Can’t wait to interact with you all soon!
