Ms. Sealy is a Native of Brooklyn, NY, and relocated to Miami, Florida, with her family. At the age of 15, Ms. Sealy became a single mother and encountered many teenage parent challenges. During this time, Ms. Sealy met a social worker that helped support, encourage, motivate, and influence her future hopes of giving back. After graduating from high school, she attended Florida International University, where she obtained a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Social Work. While in college, she often felt a desire to seek emotional support services to balance motherhood, being a student, and being overwhelmed by life as a whole. She knew of an on-campus counseling center but was frightened by entering an unfamiliar, taboo space; not knowing what to say or ask. College life as a young parent was challenging, but without knowing how to access help, she had to push through in silence.

Nevertheless, Ms. Sealy always felt a strong desire to give back. What started as Ms. Sealy’s interest would later become her passion and dedication to give back to a community that earlier had helped her on her journey. Ms. Sealy decided that not only did she want to help children, families, and college students, she also wanted to be a role model to her son. Thus, in 2000, Ms. Sealy began her career in Social Work. Today, she works with targeted populations to including LGBTQ population, elderly adults, diverse families, abused and neglected children, at-risk youth, adolescents within the juvenile justice system, homeless youth, independent young adults, and college students, to name a few.

Ms. Sealy is relatable and has successfully filled multiple roles, including a caretaker, case manager, program supervisor, advocate, mentor, confidant, counselor, and family therapist. Throughout the years in clinical practice, she found gratification in each experience she has encountered. The past 18+ years have been dedicated to working with families, children, youth, and young adults of all ages and from diverse backgrounds. In 2019, Ms. Sealy would further make her mark in the mental health field as the owner of ” A Listening Ear and Open Heart LLC”; as a safe space allowing clients to express themselves without the fear of judgment. She works closely with clients by actively listening, identifying individual needs, and creating realistic and attainable goals. She does this while encouraging, supporting, motivating, and empowering each person.

Ms. Sealy strives to reach families and a generation of children, adolescents, and young adults that yearn to be acknowledged, listened to, accepted, and understood. A population that’s hungry for attention, affection, and awareness. Her goal is to continue providing mental health support and always give back as she has continued to be blessed and humbled and holds firm to “To Whom Much Is Given, Much is Required” (Luke 12:48).
