2025 CAMFT Outstanding Chapter Leader Award Recipient: Keonna Robinson, LMFT

The Outstanding Chapter Leader Award is presented each year at the annual Chapter Leadership Conference to one member of each chapter for exemplary service, commitment, and contribution made to the chapter. This individual is nominated by their entire chapter board.

In 2025 the Los Angeles Chapter is honored to nominate Keonna Robinson, LMFT, for this year’s Outstanding Chapter Leader Award!

Keonna first shared her leadership skills with LA-CAMFT in 2022, when she went above and beyond as a mentor in our ground-breaking Therapists of Color (TOC) Mentorship Program. Keonna provided highly tailored individual and group mentorship to five TOC mentees, volunteering her experience, strength, and talent as an LMFT, providing space for them to learn from one another and introducing them to all LA-CAMFT offers.

By mid 2022, Keonna graciously joined the TOC Mentorship Program Committee and began her ascent into LA-CAMFT leadership. In 2023, Keonna became an LA-CAMFT Board Member-At-Large and the TOC Mentorship Program Chair.

Keonna has elevated the TOC Mentorship Program exponentially, creating a Mentorship Orientation before each cohort and a yearly event that brings the TOC mentorship community together. Last year’s event was a beach Bonfire entitled “Igniting Change -Celebrating the Spark of Diversity through Mentorship,” this year’s upcoming event is entitled “Dishes of Diversity: A Mentoring Potluck.” In addition, Keonna was instrumental in helping organize an LA-CAMFT table at the 2024 NAMI Conference.

Keonna is known for her humble spirit, passion for greatness, collaborative approach, attention to detail, beautiful PowerPoints, creative ideas, always lending a helping hand, and looking out for the best interest of the entire chapter. Overall, Keonna is a dynamic leader who inspires us to do more and do better!
