The Mind-Body Connector

Hi!

My name is Linda. I am a Black Mind-Body Wellness Educator, Psychotherapist, and Registered Yoga and Meditation Instructor in the Raleigh-Durham metro area of North Carolina.   I refresh with meditation, yoga, and conscious breathing and movement, taking me inward to my divine true self. I do my absolute best to practice what I preach. My college student daughter will check me in a minute with, “Mom, have you meditated lately?” if she gets a strong reaction as opposed to a calm response from me. I’ve taught her well.

Yoga and meditation (including moving meditation of exercise, immersed in nature) and all that I’ve learned from therapy through the years helps me to be in the moment with conscious awareness of what my brain is telling my emotions and my body and what is true.

I love reconnecting Black and Intercultural Love.  We are unique, passionate, and sometimes suffer in silence and isolation. Our love and happiness, our deep emotional and physical connection, matters. I help disconnected couples who want to get their sexy best friend back.  Sometimes, we are our sexy best friend.

I live and breathe Black and Intercultural Love. I believe how well a couple engages has tremendous impact on the health and wellness of the family and future generations.

 


It is for this reason, As One Wellness’s mission is to help Black and intercultural couples reconnect to get their sexy best friend back through mind-body awareness and well-being practices.

 

If you want more emotional and intimate closeness, fun, and pleasure in your relationship, a deeper connection, you’re my people.

I have extensive training and experience in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy, Sex Therapy, Meditation Instruction, and Internal Family Systems.  I am also excited about bringing Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy into my practice. I see holistic mind-body wellness complement psychotherapy.
