Meet Dr. Dwayne White
Counselor.
Educator.
Scholar.
I am committed to helping people live with greater freedom, authenticity, and connection. My work sits at the intersection of mental health, identity, culture, storytelling, and liberation.
People do not need to be fixed.
I believe in people’s innate wisdom and capacity for growth. My role is to walk alongside individuals, communities, and organizations as we name the barriers, reclaim our stories, and build lives and systems grounded in dignity, healing, and possibility.
Education &
Credentials
PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
National Certified Counselor (NCC)
Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC)
Research &
Scholarship
My scholarship examines the intersection of identity, culture, and mental health.
I explore how storytelling and narrative healing can transform individual and collective well-being.
I am committed to research that advances equity, liberation, and human flourishing.
Beyond the Work
Outside of clinical and academic spaces, I find renewal in meaningful conversations, music, fitness, travel, and time with people I love. Karaoke is one of my favorite ways to unwind, and I am a proud Beyoncé stan. These parts of my life keep me grounded, connected, and reminded that joy matters, too.
