Like-Minded with Dr. Patrice

Your Neighborhood Psychologist: Dr. Shareefah Al’Uqdah

Dr. Patrice Le Goy Season 3 Episode 22

Although Minority Mental Health Awareness Month is behind us, the conversation is far from over. In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Shareefah Al’Uqdah, licensed psychologist, Howard University professor, and founder of Your Neighborhood Clinic. We will delve into a deeper look at what culturally competent mental health care really means. With more than 20 years of experience supporting Black families and Muslim communities, Dr. Al’Uqdah shares how young adults of color (ages 18–30) are navigating the mental health system—and what clinicians, communities, and systems must do to meet their needs better.
