After moving to California, Cat's life makes a turn for the worse. Upon meeting her family, some embrace her while others overtly reject her. Confused by why family members met her with resistance, Cat would later find out why her mother fled to New York in hiding for so many years. Unlike her mother, she faces her fears head on, without compromise. Cat makes the decision that through her actions, she will not permit her past to predict her future. SaniyyahMayo.com |
Contributor Bio(s): Mayo, Dr Saniyyah: - Dr. Saniyyah Mayo is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Keynote Speaker, Author, and Screenwriter. Dr. Mayo's strong interest in the social sciences led her to pursue a B.A. in Criminal Justice, in the hopes of working with at-risk youth. She took up an active role in her church's youth ministry. These opportunities exposed her to the complexities of family life and the impact that repeated cycles of behavior can have on an individual's psyche, even if they don't realize it. Recognizing the importance of the family unit as both a cause of as well as potential solution for a range of recurring social and psychological problems, Dr. Mayo expanded her expertise by beginning graduate study in Clinical Psychology (with a focus on marriage and family therapy) at Azusa Pacific University in Azusa, CA, for which she received a Master's degree. This further empowered Dr. Mayo to make a difference in the lives of people. |
