Pride in Practice: An Empowered Nurse's Journey Through LGBTQIA+ Mental Health
In the second episode of Mindful Moments, we sit down with Dr. Sasha Rarang, Dean of Nursing, PhD, CCM, APRN, PMHNP-BC, nurse of over 30 years, and a fierce advocate for LGBTQIA+ mental health. She’s joined by Anthony Villa, a certified Family Nurse Practitioner and fellow LGBTQIA+ advocate whose work champions inclusivity in health care.
Together, they reflect on the personal battles, systemic gaps, and hard-won progress that led them to lead with both pride and purpose. From the silence surrounding LGBTQIA+ mental health to the power of representation in care, their conversation is a heartfelt call to action.
Pride in Practice isn’t just about identity — it’s about healing, visibility, and building a future where no one is left behind.
