Breyta Psychologist Awarded Research Honor

January 5, 2024

We’re so proud of our Dr. Ficker!

Dr. Ficker and her colleagues at the Wayne State Institute of Gerontology have won the American Public Health Association Aging & Public Health Section 2020 Betty Cleckley Minority Issues Research Award for their manuscript, “Is It All About Racism? The Role of Avoidant Coping on Cardiovascular Health & Blood Pressure in Older Blacks.”

The purpose of the award is to recognize individuals in aging and public health research who have made a significant impact on the lives of older people who are members of minority groups. Minimizing health disparities and improving access to health and long-term care services are important issues for minority populations in the U.S.

Congratulations to Dr. Ficker and her colleagues! Thank you for your important contribution to the field.

Breyta Testimonials

"My prim care doctor sent me to Breyta for insomnia therapy. It actually worked and I'm sleeping for the first time in years. I could cry I'm so happy. Thank you!"

"I see one psychologist here for therapy and was able to see another for marriage counseling with my partner. It's nice to get that in the same place, plus the psychologists are really good at what they do. Our marriage feels really strong and we were on the edge of breaking up before coming here."

"Honestly I wish I'd seen her years ago. She helped me through when I didn't see a way ahead and I can't say enough how kind and real she is. I can go to her and ask about something I'm feeling and she explains it in a way that makes so much sense to me. I always learn new stuff from her. Really really good doc."

"I had a good experience here. I wanted to let others know that you will have an easy time scheduling, staff is knowledgable and polite. They actually returned my call quicker than any other doctor ever has. My doctor was really experienced and knew what they were doing. I liked that I had homework and worksheets to help me remember what we talked about and that I could use on my own time. I feel better so I'm not going right now, but I would definitely go back if I need to."
