In this week’s episode of ‘Therapy-ish, we sit down with Austin-based LPC Tracy A. Long, who runs her own private practice, Shades of Resilience Counseling. Tracy specializes in trauma-focused and relationship-based therapy for Black men. This episode is all about the relationship Black men have with the healthcare system, even outside the context of mental health.
From the hesitance of young therapists to work with male clients, to deeply rooted patterns in the Black community preventing men from expressing vulnerability, Tracy and Asha cover it all!
Therapy-ish was created with the mindset of removing the stigma around mental health and to help bridge the gap from the streets to the office. Our goal is to educate listeners on new ways to go about seeking help, becoming more aware of where we are, discuss therapy in traditional and non-traditional ways with expressing new ways to move forward in the world.
