Black, Indigenous, People of Color Mental Health Collective
The Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) Mental Health Collective was born out of a petition initiative for BIPOC therapeutic representation at Boston University. Currently, BIPOCMHC serves as a safe, communal space for racial minority students to share mental health resources and experiences.

Meet Our Team!
Kesha, she/her
I regularly attend therapy, talk with my friends and family, and read romance novels! I also love baking cookies from scratch to work through my emotions.
Angelee, she/her
I really enjoy working out and making coffee first thing in the morning—I find that always starts my day off with the right energy. Every night to wind down I try to make time for journal writing to center my thoughts.
Amanda, she/her
I think the best thing is just listening to what your body/mind want. It’s important to prioritize making time for just doing what you wanna do!
Eshita, she/her
My favorite self care practices are activities that make me get lost in the moment like scrapbooking, or therapy so I can reflect on how I’m doing!
Moriah, she/her
I find it important to disconnect from what I feel obligated to do and invest time in what I enjoy like reading short stories, poems, watching films. Mostly consuming art that makes me think more deeply and gets my mind off of day to day stresses and also writing affirmations to approach my day with more confidence.

My favorite self care practices are journaling and painting. I find that both help ease my anxiety in different ways.
