Saint Paul, MN — Dr. Kasim Abdur Razzaq is dedicated to helping others achieve mental health and wellbeing. As a mental health professional, he has long been fascinated by how people understand complex ideas. He works to find ways to give people language and meaning for their personal experiences. His experiences as a Black Muslim man have helped him understand the importance of cultural context and roots for the people he helps. He believes true healing for Black communities is tied to understanding the traumas that have affected all Black people. During his Bush Fellowship, he will focus on his own health practices as he works to build his capacity to inspire and support more Black mental health professionals.
