-The Self-Care Doc: Dr. Raé N. Lundy
Dr. Raé N. Lundy is a licensed clinical psychologist, mental health activist, higher education administrator, and TEDx Speaker.
The journey that led Dr. Lundy to pursue such a diverse path was inspired by personal experiences of depression followed by years of working with young people in higher education. Dr. Raé Nicole designed a self-care model of services encouraging individuals to invest time and attention into their mental health. Her work is comprised of methods that decrease stress and guard against mental fatigue.
"I have always been passionate about helping people ," explains Dr. Raé Nicole "and I decided to go into psychology because it allowed me to learn about how people think, how they react to situations and how they grow." She adds, “the goal of being a psychologist is helping people thrive and be the best they can be.”
‘Healthy Hearts Counseling & Coaching' developed in 2018 by Dr. Raé Nicole, provides mental health services for clients to achieve healthy relationships, emotional balance, and personal goals.
Dr. Raé's experience has taken her across the country as a public speaker engaging audiences around topics such as Mental Health Stigma, Trauma Recovery, Self-Care Empowerment and Diversity. She also specializes in self-care techniques that support the LGBTQ+ community and provides workshops that incorporate inclusive practices and help to facilitate cultural identity awareness. The insights she acquired inspired Dr. Raé Nicole to cultivate the identity and forum known as The Self Care Doc.
This platform represents the passion of one individual whose research and clinical experiences have led her to develop a vision that benefits us all: self-care is the future of mental health! Dr. Raé's goal is to remind us that caring for ourselves in a way that supports a dynamic mindset, creates the necessary space to live a healthier lifestyle.
