He has an extensive background in social service and counseling, with over twenty years of experience working with individuals and groups seeking meaningful change in their life. His counseling philosophy is based on the existential therapy approach, which allows individuals from all walks of life to address important life themes. Themes include living and dying, freedom, responsibility to self and others, finding meaning in life, and dealing with feelings of meaninglessness. More than other therapies, existential psychotherapy examines individuals awareness of themselves and their ability to look beyond their immediate problems and the daily events of human existence. Because individuals do not exist in isolation from others, developing honest and intimate relationships with others is a theme throughout existential therapy. Roosevelt holds a masters degree in psychology with a concentration in mental health counseling. He also holds certifications as a long-term psychiatric disability specialist and a minority mental health specialist, as well as a special population consultant specialist. He has provided counsel and support to families and individuals from all walks of life. Twenty-One Days-Plus shares with its readers many of the lessons he has learned and fundamental tools that have proven essential for personal growth and self-discovery.view less
