Shesheena A. Bray moved to Philadelphia in 2003 to attend Temple University, where she completed her undergraduate degree in African American Studies and Political Science. In 2014, Shesheena realized her service to Black and Brown communities was best actualized through her passion, mental and emotional wellness. Honing her focus and training, she earned a M.S.Ed in mental health counseling from the University of Pennsylvania. Upon completion, Shesheena started Going Inward Wellness, LLC. In addition to seeing clients one-on-one for therapy, Shesheena also leads psycho-educational groups, and teaches mindfulness in Philadelphia public schools.
