I knew then: 
THE MEN’S CIRCLE

Unpack. Reflect. Connect.

The Men’s Circle is a sacred space where men of color can be real—with themselves and each other. No posturing. No judgment. Just powerful, necessary conversations about identity, love, legacy, and healing.

I KNEW THEN:
1:1 Coaching for Men of Color

RELATIONSHIP COACHING WITH RON DOWNS.

Rooted in identity. 
Powered by love.

This isn’t about fixing you—it’s about helping you reconnect with the version of yourself that already knows he’s worthy.

Ron offers 1:1 virtual coaching designed exclusively for men of color who are ready to grow with intention. These non-clinical sessions are a space to unpack what’s heavy, reflect on what’s real, and rise with a deeper sense of purpose, clarity, and self-respect.

​Licensed Therapy Services

If you’re seeking licensed therapy, I provide clinical therapy for men of color and their partners through Alma as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). Therapy is a separate service from coaching and offered under my professional license. Because these are distinct services with different goals and boundaries, clients cannot switch between coaching and therapy. For more information or to schedule therapy, please visit my Alma Therapy Platform:
