If you educate yourself, it's not your fault. So you know, we all share it, including me. I'm not exempt, as A-Year-Old black man, from some of the things that The-Year-Olds come in. But you know I'm pretty transparent out there.
What does it mean to truly understand someone's mental health needs? In this episode of 'The Mindful Space', host Michelle Chaffardet sits down with Dr. Curtis Jasper, a psychologist with a focus on Black men's mental health. Dr. Jasper brings his expertise to the table, shedding light on the critical need for culturally competent mental health therapy.
He dives into how systemic racism contributes to psychological stress within the Black community, making it clear that one-size-fits-all therapy approaches simply don't work here. But it’s not just about identifying the problem; Dr. Jasper also discusses pathways to healing, emphasizing the difference between healing and fixing. Emotional literacy and managing emotional reactions are key themes in their conversation, offering practical advice for those looking to support Black men's mental health more effectively.
If you're passionate about mental health and eager to understand how cultural context plays a role, this episode is a must-listen. Michelle and Dr. Jasper's discussion is not only informative but also deeply empathetic, making complex issues accessible and relatable.
