Dr. Abishai Anlimah is a licensed consultant clinical psychologist on very high demand who defies categorization. Following his undergraduate studies in Psychology, he proceeded to pursue Clinical Psychology from the University of Ghana. He currently practices as a Clinical Psychologist, Researcher and Lecturer. These to him are neither about professions nor career building, but about the love and passion to impact practical wisdom, African-centered scientific values and life support to people. It is therefore his cogent creed to offer his valuable services to all, especially the vulnerable in society such as children, teenagers, women, elderly and persons with disability. Following his passion for mental health, Abishai supported and became the Head of Friends of Mental Health – an NGO that focuses on seeking funds to support mental health in Ghana.

With a desire to promote African interest and virtues, Abishai has been a passionate reader of peer-reviewed journals that bother on Pan-Africanism, health/wellbeing and traditional treatment.
