Dr. Elizabeth Morake

Elizabeth Morake was born in Baltimore USA. She spent most of her formative years between the United States and South Africa. Growing up in the midst of two contrasting cultures, she was exposed to a variety of perspectives and experiences that would shape her worldview and inspire her lifelong dedication to serving others. As a young professional athlete, and the daughter of a freedom fighter, mental health was an early passion and realisation. Elizabeth has been involved in numerous projects ranging from education, health and social development. She is currently a 2nd year Psychiatry resident at The Psychiatric Hospital Gheorghe Preda in Sibiu, where she has developed a keen interest in suicide, suicidal behavior, and depression. Her dedication to these areas of study has led her to pursue further education and research in the field of mental health.
