Antonio Wright is a young African American male, born and raised in the Durham area.
As of today I have been in the public service/mental health field for over 12 years. My career began as a volunteer firefighter for almost six years. I started my undergrad degree at Strayer University obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Criminal justice which led me to a career in the Justice system as a Correctional Officer for 5 years. I have obtained my Masters Degree from Walden University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
After serving as a correctional officer, my passion wasn't fulfilled until I began working with at-risk youth as a Youth Counselor for Chatham County until 2021. Because I wanted to make a greater impact in the world through direct service I gained employment with a community based mental health agency as a Qualified Professional Counselor all while pursuing his Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
After obtaining my degree I have become a Family Counselor,where I provide 1 on 1 therapeutic sessions with the youth and their families regarding matters such as but not limited; coping skills, conversation tactics and mindfulness strategies. Helping others has always been a passion of mine and I have truly dedicated my life to giving back and promoting others. Change is here, promoting better mental health is here, join The Wright Mentality Mentality Mentoring and see the changes you'll see in your child. When you change your Mentality, everything else flows!
