Eye In Me
Elevating Black Minds Through Mental Health
Only 1 in 3 Black adults in need of mental health care receive it.
This is due to a shortage of culturally responsive mental health professionals and our healthcare system's infatuation with emergency treatment instead of preventative mental healthcare.This is a bonafide public health issue.
The Solution is now.
Eye In Me is a social enterprise dedicated to Elevating Black Minds through Mental Health by providing culturally relevant services and facilitating education and training to develop and diversify the field of psychotherapist.
The Vision:
Eye In Me envisions Black communities having convenient access to culturally responsive psychotherapy and feeling comfortable utilizing it as prevention, treatment, and emergencies if needed.We hold the following Core Values:
These core values form the foundation of the supportive services provided through Eye In Me.
Resilience
We value resilience without ignoring pain. We acknowledge both strength and vulnerability, understanding that true resilience involves not only enduring but actively addressing and alleviating the sources of pain.Lived Experiences
We recognize and honor lived experiences as valid evidence and scholarship. We value the unique perspectives and knowledge that individuals bring to their therapy journey.Therapy as Self-Love and Advocacy
We view therapy as an act of self-love, self-care, and advocacy. Emphasizing the historical tendency for sacrificial love within Black communities, we stress the importance of prioritizing personal well-being, fostering a culture where therapy becomes an act of both self-love and advocacy for collective progress.Primary Support Pathways

The PP Doula program has been incredibly helpful for my private practice journey. When I first started, I was feeling overwhelmed by all the logistics of starting my own business. Shatiea did a wonderful job of breaking everything down into manageable steps and providing ongoing support. Shatiea’s flexibility and compassion made all the difference during a difficult personal time. I would highly recommend this program to any therapist looking to start their private practice. It was well worth the investment and I feel grateful for the community and resources Shatiea provided.
