Meet the Founder
Hi, I’m Tempey
Facilitator & Therapist
I founded PSA from a deeply personal conviction rooted in my family's history and my own life's work. With roots stretching back to my grandmother's days as a sharecropper in the deep south, PSA represents not just my professional journey, but a continuation of my ancestral legacy of resilience and transformation. I earned my Masters in Social Work from the University of Alabama and maintain licensure as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) across multiple states. I’m also intentional about doing the work to fill the gaps of my formal education.
