Brighter Futures Clinician

Hello my name is Terrek Humphreys, a clinician with Brighter Futures. I am a 47 year old Bay Area native who lives as a husband, father, cousin and brother.  I hold a Masters in Social Work from Cal State East Bay.  As my time as a clinician, I  have supported mental health healing for over 18 years in various ways.  I am excited for this opportunity to share my life lived experiences and expertise as a therapist to African American fathers in San Francisco. With BF goal to support this specific demographic, I am encouraged and optimistic that we can help African American men heal in a safe, respectful, and dignified manner.”

Empty your mind. Be formless. Shapeless. Like water. You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend.
