Kings Corner is a virtual weekly meetup group for men held through Zoom. Each week there is a different topic applicable to men’s mental health issues or struggles, as well as a different qualified host specialized in the topic. We aim to offer the men both psychoeducation and therapeutic tools/resources around issues they may be struggling with. (Topic Examples: Male Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Stress Management, Anger Management, Self-Care, Grief and Loss, Anger Management, Fatherhood, Healthy Relationships, etc).
This is a safe space that promotes sharing, vulnerability, support, community, and brotherhood amongst the participants. This group is open to Men all over the country and internationally. King’s Corner has also been a great way to collaborate and partner with other professionals and organizations doing applicable and meaningful work in our communities.

Hey there! My name is Ibinye. I’m a Black, immigrant therapist who helps women of color thrive personally and professionally. I know how difficult it is to be constantly mislabeled.
Women of color like you, need a place to relax your shoulders, say it like it is and talk about the pain that has been holding you back.
In this group, you will be seen- no holds barred. I will hear you, I will respect your experiences and I will give you the tools to heal.




Lay Down Your Burdens
Everyone sees you as a strong, responsible woman-the go to woman. On the outside things look calm, but internally, you feel like you’re drowning. You know you should do something for yourself, but you struggle to.
You’ve been misunderstood, judged and you’ve had to fight to get to where you are.
You know you CAN’T give up.
YOU DESERVE TO BE VALUED AND HEARD.
You struggle to open up to your friends, because they don’t always understand. But you want and need support.
I know you’re sick and tired of being the strong woman. You want a place where you can talk about how to move away from survival mode. You want to learn how to manage your feelings and find genuine understanding. You want to be a part of a sisterhood of women who will get you- so you can thrive.
We’ll talk about:
-
Toxic work and family environments.
-
Managing anxiety, stress and lifting your self esteem.
-
Setting healthy boundaries in relationships.
-
How to take care of yourself (and we’re not just talking about manicures and massages)
-
How to ask for help
-
Self compassion
-
Managing anxiety and stress
YOU DESERVE A SISTERHOOD WHO WILL LAUGH WITH YOU, CRY WITH YOU, AND SEE THE REAL YOU.
You don’t have to explain anything. You can just be. Prepare to finally be seen.
