Called to Healing
Podcast Description
A podcast by two BIPoC/PGM Mental health practitioners (Dr. Ksera Dyette & Blanca Torres, LMFT) at different parts of our professional journeys, who answered the call to healing. We are here to have conversations that were sorely lacking in our training...like how our cultural identities shape our approach to mental health, how whiteness is deeply embedded in our fields, and how we show up despite it...to spite it.

Who we are and how we show up in the room is often referred to as “clinical persona,” and directly relates to our clinical niche(s). However, it is also wrapped up in power and oppression and messages we were given, either overt or covert, about what was appropriate or acceptable.
Reminder 1: As usual, this episode is not meant for tiny ears.
Reminder 2: We recorded our first few episodes in batches, so our time context may not align with release dates.
