Dr. Broderick Sawyer
Ph.D.
Psychologist, Activist & Consultant
Originally a college basketball player from a small Connecticut city on the edge of NYC, Broderick is now a clinical psychologist, teacher, activist and consultant living in Louisville, Kentucky. In his graduate training, Dr. Sawyer studied mindfulness meditation, compassion, and behavioral techniques for healing racial trauma and other forms of generational harm.
Dr. Sawyer eventually realized that he could maximize his impact by teaching people in larger settings, outside of the therapy room. His goal was to remove the barriers to learning accurate mental health information, especially for change-makers (i.e., non-profit employees, activists, therapists, etc.), and people who don't have access to 1-on-1 psychotherapy.
Now, as an independent contractor, Dr. Sawyer collaborates with non-profits, businesses, therapy clinics, universities, grassroots organizers, and other organizations to provide psychology curriculums for in-depth skill-building, custom-fitted training, and ongoing consultation and mentoring.
