Mercedelli Graciano, also known as "Mercy G" is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and self-published author who traveled the world of entertainment through a former career as a dancer/choreographer, actress, model and TV production assistant.

  After transitioning through a career via the education sector and seeing the need for emotional intelligence in kids, she decided to give back to the world by starting The Self Specialist. In an effort to help people become the best version of themselves her main drive is Self-Love with an understanding of Self-Awareness, Self-Care and Self-Control. 

In her own words, “It all starts from within; if we are able to look at ourselves and notice the markings we leave imprinted through our paths, we would be more conscious of how we act and interact. Being self-centered and selfish is actually not a bad thing if done in a healthy way. To be self-centered is to be grounded and to be selfish is to establish boundaries.”
