Olivia L. Baylor, LCPC, NCC, BC-TMH — Founder of My Mental Health University®
Origin

Built by a clinician still doing the work.

My Mental Health University® was founded by Olivia L. Baylor, LCPC — a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who has spent the last fifteen years asking the same question: what does it look like when clinicians, clergy, coaches, and couples receive the specific care their real lives require?

My Mental Health University® is one answer. The Certified Pre-Marital Specialist™ (CPMS™) credential is another. The Premarital Counseling Directory. And The Before I Do Method™, the two-book premarital preparation set launching in September, the first of its kind written for heterosexual, LGBTQIA+, and polyamorous couples together. Every course, every credential, every resource is built and reviewed by someone still in practice.
