BabySteps Psychology Magagzine

Hi Dear,  Thank you for visiting this blog which I renamed  9MindWorks.    Kindly click URL@: 9jamindworks.blogspot.com  for details I am a trained Psychologist with years of experience as a Development Specialist, working with donors on key interventions that improved lives and rights of thousands of poor rural women,  children and adolescents and  key population like female sex workers. I am also a mental health writer, coach and advocate.   9MindWorks    is a mental health magazine with simplified information to enable you reach your full potentials, regardless of your circumstances, culture,  race or color. Trending worldwide issues with its mental health impacts are also major highlights of  9MindWorks .  Mental health advocacy,  demystification and destigmatization have been my passions since my undergraduate days when I launched the first  BabySteps Psycholology Magazine , later calling it  Joyce Psychology Magazine  in a bid to get more local content awareness|atte
