I, Shajuan Alexander, licensed clinical social worker, psychotherapist, business owner, and coach would like to propose to be a selected Clinician for the 2025 Clinician Fest-Panel Discussion Session. I have successfully navigated the challenges of mental health care, entrepreneurship, and intentional living. My practice, The Culture of Health, is dedicated to empowering clinicians—especially Gen z and Millennial women of color—to achieve success by aligning their personal and professional goals without compromising their mental well-being.
I am a Millennial, Black woman who is a wife, mother, social advocate, naturalista and self-care enthusiast. Authenticity/Vulnerability/Integrity are some of the top core values of who I am as a woman and professional. Helping people be human, acknowledging their emotions, creating firm boundaries and healthy relationships are some topics that are important to me and that I choose to highlight throughout my practice. I am a firm believer that in order for a person to be whole, there has to be a foundation of self awareness that can be gained throughout of upbringings or our experiences from difference individuals that we encounter. When clients experience me, I want to leave the impression that mental wellness is achievable and shift the culture towards wellness in every aspect.
