"Therapy is for white people."

In today’s episode, we are getting into:

• My personal experience with hearing the phrase “therapy is for white people,” and my path to denouncing it.
• A very shallow dive into the psychology behind Black people and obstacles that prevent us from seeking therapeutic treatment.
• And finally, how we can move past it and bask in the paradise that is going to therapy.
