138. Inspiring Compassion and Grace in Today's Kids with Dr. Keba Rogers

HTW with Zoe and Erica

Dr. Keba Rogers just wants people to be kinder to themselves. As the CEO and founder of Grace, Growth and Greatness Psychological Services, a New York State licensed psychologist, nationally certified school psychologist, and diplomat for the American Board of School Neuropsychology, she works with people of all ages to teach and preach the power of grace, especially that which we show ourselves. Dr. Rogers’ areas
of specialty include helping communities move from a focus on transactional diversity to transformational
inclusion, and working with clients who have experienced trauma, have emotional and behavioral disorders,
learning disabilities, are marginalized, belong to historically underserved and underrepresented groups, and/or
are limited by institutional barriers.

In this episode, we acknowledge the facts: that we’re STILL in the midst of an ongoing pandemic and a generation of kids is growing up with this as their normal. We talk about some of the effects this is having, and could have in the future, and how to support mental health, for ourselves and for our kids.

Dr. Keba Rogers talks about...

• Founding Grace, Growth and Greatness
• Helping kids understand grace and self-compassion
• Talking about death and other heavy topics with kids
• Time out vs. time in
• Making space in therapy for Black girls
• Supporting mental health on social media
