About Raising Resilience
Tiffany Bishop & Whitney Coble
Perinatal Mental Health Certified Therapists
At Raising Resilience, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and beauty of Black motherhood. Since our inception in 2018, we’ve been dedicated to fostering a vibrant and supportive community for Black mothers in Charlotte. What began as a heartfelt effort to curate local events focused on self-care has grown into a cornerstone of support for our community.
​
As the world changed with the pandemic, we adapted to meet the evolving needs of our mothers. In response to the growing need for connection and support, we launched virtual support groups, ensuring that our community remained connected and uplifted during challenging times.
In 2021, our mission evolved further, and we proudly expanded our services to become a full-fledged maternal mental health practice. We now provide virtual counseling and support to mothers across North Carolina and DC, offering a safe space for healing and empowerment.
​
Since our humble beginnings, we’ve had the privilege of serving over 500 Black and Brown women, each one contributing to the rich tapestry of our shared experience. We’re committed to continuing our journey together, providing resources, support, and a nurturing community where every Black mother can thrive.​​
Black Moms Deserve Support
Our Core Beliefs
1 in 3 Black mothers experience depression or anxiety but are less likely to receive support
If Mom is Well, All Can Be Well
Moms are the vessels. When she is supported and thriving, the whole family thrives.
Fathers & Caregivers Matter, Too
The likelihood of fathers and other caregivers experiencing depression or anxiety increases if mom is struggling.
We Have to Name it to Tame It
Matrescence is the journey of becoming a mom, with lots of physical, mental, and emotional shifts. We tackle this by naming what’s going on, so we can better handle it all.
