Meet the Founder

​​Miana Bryant is a senior in college pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Criminal Justice.  Her passion for mental health stemmed from her own personal battles with depression and anxiety throughout her adolescence. Though wounded, Miana turned her pain into ‘The Mental Elephant” in order to reach other people around the globe that battle the same problems. She is the sole founder and currently, operates all online outlets as the only editor. Aside from online work, she is also the President of The Mental Elephant Organization on her college campus, with a 5 member executive board, and an estimated 150 herd members. In addition, Ms.Bryant has a 3.4 major GPA, received The 2017-2018 NAACP Black Excellence; Black Girl Magic Award, and is an inducted member of The National Society of Leadership and Success. She intends to pursue her Masters and PhD in Forensic Psychology, and work to become a Criminal Psychologist by 2026.

She would like to acknowledge Daniel Spellman Jr, for pushing her to share her story, and inspiring her to be great. More so, she thanks her parents Michael and Angela Bryant, as well as her older sister Michea Bryant for everything they have done.
