Stephen Roberts: Addressing Trauma in the Black Community
“I think a lot of the motivations behind that have to do with just the culture in and of itself and the way, the way in which people are brought up and how discipline is seen.”
Stephen Roberts, a mental health counseling student, joins Jeff Friedman on this episode of the 'Trauma Informed Podcast' to tackle the complex issue of trauma within the Black community. Stephen's passionate and informed perspective sheds light on the root causes of trauma and mental health struggles in marginalized communities. From cultural influences to the medicalization of poverty, this conversation doesn't shy away from the tough topics.
Stephen also dives into the inequities in the criminal justice system and how these systemic issues contribute to ongoing trauma. Drawing from his own experiences and academic background, Stephen offers practical advice for fostering resilience and recovery. This episode is an eye-opener for anyone interested in understanding trauma-informed practices and the intersection of mental health and social justice.
