Good morning family,
Yesterday, I learned and am saddened that our sister and colleague, Malika O'Neill passed away. Malika was a former student of mine at Lincoln University in the Master of Science in Counseling program. Inspired along the way by the work that many of you do, she graduated from Lincoln and went to Widener University's S*xuality program. She completed their MEd program and went on to open up a private practice based out of Philadelphia. I am so proud of Malika and our Lincoln University and AASECT community for creating space for her to grow personally and professionally. She co-wrote the intersectionality chapter in Tammy Nelson's Integrative S*x & Couples Therapy book and her practice centered the relational and sexual experiences of BIPOC q***r folx.

To learn more about Malika's contribution to our community, you can visit her IG account here:

Her family has a gofundme link that can be found here:

I do not have information about the memorial services but when I learn more, I would be more than happy to share with you if you inbox me.

A mother, fiance, daughter, and sister, Malika was a very special soul who would do… Shazell Hill needs your support for Donation in memory of Malika O'Neill
