We're interviewing Yolanda Renteria about the intersection of politics and mental health. We talk about why therapists are even involved in politics, what impact politics has on our mental health, the specific mental health impacts of Trump, and how to care for our mental health during a stressful election year. Yolanda is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Arizona with a certification in trauma and training in somatic approaches. She works in a community setting in an agricultural community serving predominantly Hispanic clients. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work and a Masters degree in Counseling. She is also adjunct faculty Professor for the Social Sciences Department at Northern Arizona University. In her free time she enjoys reading, writing, and spending time with her family.
