TAMPA, Fla. - May 27, 2025 - PRLog -- Dr. Nekeshia Hammond Launches Global Mental Health Initiative to Empower 1 Million People

Dr. Nekeshia Hammond, a globally respected psychologist, is on a mission to empower 1 million people worldwide with the tools for mental health and wellness. With an unwavering commitment to dismantling the stigma surrounding mental health, Dr. Hammond is expanding her efforts to help individuals not only understand mental health but also embrace tools for long-term wellbeing.

Through her six published books—most recently the USA TODAY Best Seller, Mindset Training: Conquer Your Mind and the Rest Will Follow—Dr. Hammond has provided practical guidance for those seeking to improve their mental health. Her weekly show, Mental Health Moment with Dr. Hammond, broadcast on the Black Women Empowered, Inc. network, reaches a global audience of over 4 million viewers, offering encouragement, education, and real-life strategies to support mental wellness.

She has spoken internationally on stress management, burnout prevention, leadership development, and holistic mental wellness. Dr. Hammond also founded the Mindset Training School, an empowering platform for leaders to learn about self-care practices that support high performance and inner peace.

As part of this initiative, Dr. Hammond is creating a foundation to broaden the global distribution of mental health awareness— including underserved communities. For decades, she has volunteered across various communities, passionately advocating for better mental health services and access.

"I've spent my career trying to help people understand that positive mental health is not a luxury—it's a necessity," says Dr. Hammond. "When we give people the tools to care for their minds, we give them the freedom to live fuller, more meaningful lives."

Dr. Hammond's new initiative will also include collaborations with global leaders, digital campaigns to raise awareness, and strategic partnerships aimed at increasing access to culturally responsive mental health education. Her foundation, currently in development, will prioritize underserved communities and youth-focused programming.

With past features on platforms like ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, and TEDx, and roles such as Past President of the Florida Psychological Association and Past Chair of the Board of Directors for the Ryan Nece Foundation, Dr. Hammond has consistently used her voice to advocate for healing, equity, and empowerment.

This new chapter of her mission builds on decades of advocacy, volunteering, and global impact—reminding the world that mental wellness is possible for everyone, regardless of background or circumstance.
