Prosilient Minds Founder 
Dr. Debra Pearce-McCall

Welcome.

Thank you for exploring Prosilient Minds.  My specialty is translating the power of the mind into customized, interesting, impacting conversations, presentations, workshops, and more. My clients and audiences consistently tell me I bring welcoming energy, enthusiasm, humor, and wisdom that open up possibilities; make sharing, risking, and learning safe and fun, and weave science and practical applications together in enjoyable, illuminating, and transforming ways. I call this work "prosilient" minds because of my deep fascination with the human mind and our capacity to creatively evolve. We can be brilliantly prosilient when we understand our social brains and the keys from science and wisdom traditions that promote and sustain well-being.
Whether you are interested in executive coaching, team or organizational consultation, professional development for your own leading, coaching, healing, or mentoring work, and/or personal growth - let's talk about making it happen.
Some credentials: PhD Psychologist with experience as executive, business partner, board member, community organizer. Decades spent working with individuals and organizations as consultant, coach, educator, facilitator, trainer, supervisor, healer. Certified in Conversational Intelligence.
Gratitude to all who have shared, taught, inspired and impacted me. All of my clients are first on this list! And I’m especially grateful to my friends and colleagues in the field of interpersonal neurobiology who continue to teach me in so many ways. And I am thankful for colleagues and friends who share my lofty aspirations for, insatiable curiosity about, and delight in our world.

All Best to You!

Bio.

I wrote my first paper about the mind in the 6th grade.  It was actually my first paper...ever.  This has been a life-long passion.
