I am Dr. Lastenia Francis, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist and Founder of Meaningful Emotion Therapy LLC. I was first drawn to Marriage & Family Therapy because I wanted to help strengthen Black families. For the past 7 years, I have been committed to that purpose. I received my BA in Psychology & Sociology from Stony Brook University. I received my MS in Marriage & Family Therapy from Mercy College. I earned my PhD in Marriage & Family Therapy from Northcentral University with a focus on Black military families. I have experience providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy in primarily Black and Hispanic neighborhoods. My focus has and continues to be on treating trauma experienced by marginalized communities as it relates to their ability to build healthy relationships
