Join us for an uplifting Author Talk with Dr. Sky Lea Ross as she shares her poetry and insights on healing, empathy, and relationships. Drawing from her own inspiring life journey, Dr. Ross uses storytelling to spark connection and understanding. Come be part of an event that celebrates resilience, hope, and the human spirit. 

 

Born & raised in the poorer parts of Northern Pasadena, Dr. Sky Lea Ross had to navigate the resources available to hear at a very young age. Having a family history of chronic mental & physical health conditions as well as disabilities, she was exposed to abuse & neglect, thus causing her to go into foster care at age 16. This opened more doors for her, introduced her to a loving & supportive foster mother, & allowed her to pursue higher education. Dr. Sky received her Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) in Marriage & Family Therapy, & has dedicated her life to fighting for social justice/human rights, providing trauma-informed therapy as well as educating others on the importance of mental health.
