Who I Am
I’m Dr. Natasha Prince (PsyD), a Psychology Associate, consultant, and facilitator with more than 15 years of experience supporting growth across education, mental health, nonprofit, and forensic settings. My work lives at the intersection of reflection, learning, and equity—helping individuals, teams, and organizations pause, realign, and move forward with clarity and care.
As the founder of Prince Consulting Collective, LLC™, I partner with people and organizations to build capacity, strengthen relationships, and lead meaningful change.
My Journey
My professional path has always centered on people, especially children and families, and has also spanned adolescents and adults. As a clinician, assessor, and facilitator, I’ve worked across schools, community mental health settings, nonprofit organizations, and forensic environments, including court-involved and correctional contexts. In these spaces, I’ve supported young people, caregivers, and adults around identity, relationships, and emotional well-being.
Working closely with children, particularly those whose emotions or behaviors are often misunderstood, has shaped the heart of my work and directly influenced my writing. Supporting children in classrooms and therapeutic spaces, and then working with adolescents and adults in forensic and system-involved settings, has given me a fuller picture of how early experiences, decision-making, and context shape people across the lifespan. Together, these experiences have shaped how I show up at work with care, cultural awareness, and a deep respect for the real people behind the decisions.
Along the way, I’ve served as an Adjunct Professor, Assessment Manager, Psychology Associate, and Professional Development Facilitator. These roles strengthened my expertise in reflective learning design, ethical assessment, data storytelling, and capacity-building strategies that help individuals and organizations move from insight to action. Across all settings and age groups, my focus has remained the same: centering identity, equity, and relationships in the work.
Why This Work Matters
As a Black woman scholar-practitioner, I understand how identity and lived experience shape how people move through systems, relationships, and moments of transition. That understanding informs how I approach my work—centering reflection, cultural awareness, and care in spaces where people are often evaluated, misunderstood, or expected to perform.
Across consulting, facilitation, and storytelling, my focus is on helping individuals and communities feel supported, affirmed, and equipped to grow with intention. Through my nonprofit, The Rooted Wellness Institute™, this work also extends into community-centered mental health education and healing spaces for historically underserved communities, reflecting a commitment to care that reaches beyond individual or organizational settings.
At its core, my work is about helping people feel seen, supported, and free to grow—whether in classrooms, courtrooms, workplaces, or community spaces.
