Meet Harry Grammer, Ph.D. 


Harry brings his leadership and lived experience, with a background in teaching arts and advocacy to systems-impacted young people, to his continuing work as a nationwide activist and educator.

Harry’s doctorate in Depth Psychology, with an emphasis in Community, Liberation & Eco-Psychology, from Pacifica Graduate Institute, is the result of decades of devotion to the four components of creating and supporting a healthy society – environment, wellness, education, and expression.

Inspired by the road less traveled, or the path not traveled at all.

His approach to life and his work is one that acknowledges the trauma he has personally experienced, combined with a tireless curiosity that drives his self-healing practice. 

His life’s mission is to share what he’s discovered to be true along the way in the hope that it will resonate and support the healing of others. His conversation on the impact of inequality is simultaneously an exploration of ways to support those most affected by it.

His global travel has taken him to more than 30 countries, where he’s spoken and supported communities through service in India, Central America, the UK, and Africa.
