Dr Shaniqua Schloss is a practitioner with Amira for Her. We first met when she was an intern, getting her MSW, and I was her supervisor. It’s been amazing to watch her grow into the woman, business owner and practitioner she is today. Thank you for your example Dr Schloss! https://www.caribbeanlife.com/caribbean-lineage-meets-brooklyn-grit/?fbclid=IwZnRzaAQPFF9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEei-vTv9cRGL3s6v_tWolxYJLOuVCeLL_CwP14-YVAl0yiIm5wM6ndDmDxdNg_aem_JWCH9G2Gl9iopvGgpkj4ew&deeplink_ref_surface=instagram_direct&direct_share_include_copy=1&fb_entity_type=unknown

💔 Our hearts are heavy with the recent news of the young life lost at Delta State University. Whether this was an act of violence or a tragic su***de, the grief ripples across communities, especially Black and Brown communities that too often feel unheard and undervalued.

In times like these, it’s important to come together, support one another, and check in on those who may be struggling. Grief, trauma, and loss affect entire communities, and seeking help is a sign of strength.

At Amira For Her, we’re committed to providing a safe space for healing and support. If you or someone you know is struggling with trauma, loss, or emotional overwhelm, reaching out to a mental health professional can help navigate these painful moments.

🖤 You are not alone. Your grief is valid. Your healing matters.

Today is heavy. 💔
One year ago today, my nephew David died by su***de. He was 36. A father. A partner. Deeply loved.

I carry him with me always.

This morning, I met with a young man in his 30s—a husband and father of three—living with untreated bipolar disorder and self-medicating with ma*****na. We talked about his diagnosis, his choices, and his future.

And I thought of David. Of the healing he needed. Of the healing I now help others move toward.

I’m so grateful to do this work—for David, and for all the Davids out there who still have time.

Please check on the men you love.
Let them know they’re not alone.
Help them stay.
