Episode 10 - Pulsing Black With Therapy - Rebecca Spann and Dr. Gaynel Nave address the subject of mental health and how therapy is viewed in the Black community. Intergenerational trauma is discussed and various ways to seek the culturally-inclusive support that people (and their families) need are shared.
DR. GAYNEL NAVE - “YOU ARE CREATED TO HEAL. IF WE IGNORE THE SORROWS AND THE PAINS THAT WE EXPERIENCE, HOW IS THAT HELPING US HEAL? “
REBECCA - “AT ONE POINT WE DIDN’T HAVE OWNERSHIP OF PRIVATE PRACTICES, OR WE WEREN’T AT CERTAIN TABLES TO MAKE DECISIONS ON BEHALF OF PEOPLE OF COLOR. I AM HUGE WITH THE WORD ‘ADVOCACY’ AND I EMPOWER MY CLIENTS TO ADVOCATE FOR THEIR HEALTH.”
