Trust. Acceptance. Self Awareness. Empathy.

These are the four core principles that Schlonda Gates builds in her curated spaces. It is through her highly unique book explorations, one-on-one student mentoring, and her educator training programs that she is able to single-handedly craft communities with one powerful purpose to provide:

Psychologically Safe Spaces For Everyone to Thrive

 

With an innate focus on uplifting melanated minds and those of their white allies, Schlonda is able to meet you where you are and take you through the transformation you seek. Whether you’re a parent of an underperforming student or an adult open to leveraging literature to embrace new perspectives – Schlonda’s programs are equally strategic as they are therapeutic.

As a previous school teacher, elementary school counselor, middle school counselor, and high school counselor, she has a truly welcoming way to help you identify your gaps, close them, and explore deeper levels of who you are.

Truth is her love language

 

She is a lifelong advocate of change for Black and Brown people as they instinctively navigate the predetermined societal and educational systems.  Her psychologically safe spaces afford everyone the opportunity to share their voice, stand in their power, and speak their truth.
