Raymond Logan

Personal Biography

Raymond C. Logan, Ph.D., a native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is an accomplished psychotherapist, educator, and organizational consultant with more than 40 years of combined experience in clinical practice, leadership, and training. He earned his B.A. in Psychology from Hampton University, followed by both an M.A. and Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from the University of Pittsburgh. He also completed post-graduate studies in Advanced Organizational Consulting at the Tavistock Institute in London, England. Dr. Logan’s career spans psychotherapy, drug treatment program leadership, trainer-of-trainers initiatives, and adjunct university teaching in the psychology of groups, criminal justice, and the psychology of African Americans. His expertise lies in helping organizations understand how nonconscious individual and group processes influence work systems, role performance, and the achievement of organizational goals—and in developing strategies to identify and manage these dynamics effectively. His research and applied work focus on transforming the harmful effects of living in a race-conscious, “us versus them” culture. He examines how these dynamics adversely affect brain development, individual functioning, relationships, and overall well-being. Drawing on cognitive-social neuroscience, he explores how infant attachment and brain development shape emotion regulation, achievement, and interpersonal relationships. Dr. Logan develops and implements brain-based interventions grounded in neuroscience to address multigenerational trauma, fostering greater clarity of life purpose, enhanced well-being, and pathways to spiritual transformation. He has provided psychotherapeutic services within the Sanctuary Model® framework to children, adolescents, and adults impacted by trauma, and has extended trauma-informed interventions to schools, communities, and organizations.
