Mom of Seven Opens A Consulting Helpline For Stressed Out Parents
Aerica Karriem, an acclaimed Family Me-
diator and Relationship Coach expert, has
taken an unprecedented step to launch
Black Online Therapy dedicated to serving
black families globally. As many people
stay at home to stop the spread of the CO-
VID-19 Virus, also known as coronavirus,
the arguments while everyone is together
are increasing. Rather stress, built up frus-
tration, or the pain they have been carry-
ing but avoiding for years are now coming
to the surface. Families can now access the
support they need from the comfort of
their homes for themselves and their loved
ones for their overall emotional health and
well-being and mental health tools that are
common.
“Our main focus is to provide a confiden-
tial, convenient and affordable way to help
prevent the onset or worsening of mental
breakdowns or mental health conditions,”
says Karriem. “We provide social emo-
tional learning and effective communica-
tion techniques to help repair and restore
families all over the world.” Black Online
Therapy is an innovative company that is
founded on three guiding principles: love
for humanity, integrity no matter what,
and unity to those who matter the most.
The business is dedicated to being a great
resource for our communities which is im-
portant to the company.
Despite stereotypes, this is not just a low
income, poverty need. The fact is that no
matter your sex, age, income level, educa-
tion, religion, or culture we all have life’s
highs and lows. We need guidance that our
girlfriends sometimes can’t help us with. Or
our close relatives may be going through
things they can’t seem to overcome them-
selves. It’s wise to allow a professional to
help assist you through your trying times.
Aerica Karriem is an esteemed community
leader of remarkable vision and character.

Statement from Chairwoman Audrey M. Edmonson:
“Father Richard Marquess-Barry embodied the meaning of
service spoken of in the Scriptures, which state “for even the
Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve.” Father
Barry was a servant through and through. Not only did he
serve faithfully as Pastor at Saint Agnes Episcopal Church, but
he also faithfully served his community. His love for Overtown
and the community was evident in everything he did. He was
my dear friend, but he held my feet to the fire. Whether it be
late night chats or urgent meetings at the church’s Parish Hall,
often accompanied by shrimp & rice and conch, Father Barry
never minced words. He was passionate about affordable hous-
ing, our children and the elderly, economic development and
disparities wherever they were to be found. Action was not just
a word for him, but a way of living. I, along with this commu-
nity, will miss this giant of a man – one who believed in helping
the least among us. His legacy will live on, and the projects that
he was diligently working on until the end will leave a lasting
mark on the community he loved so much.“

tive, impactful ways to heal black families
and to elevate our next generation, but it
hasn’t always been that way. Aerica was a
stay at home mom for 14 years. She lost
herself and when she realized she had had
enough, she decided change was necessary
but she didn’t know where and who to turn
to. She felt broke and broken. There was no
place she was aware of and felt comfortable
enough without feeling unfairly judged,
like many others. So she decided to take
classes, go to seminars, read hundreds of
hours of related family and healing books
and more importantly she got involved
in her community. She became a certified
family mediator and relationship coach.
Aerica has created a successful curriculum
and now she certifies others to do the same.
