Decolonization of Mental Health with Courtney Watson | Ep. 44 | The Lex Files

Written By: Lex Pelger

Jun 13, 2021

In our era of growing awareness for the marginalized communities in our country, decolonization of our diverse global society, and the rise of movements like #blacklivesmatter, it is important to realize that mental health is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. Many people prefer to work with a therapist who is representative of their community and their struggles. Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Courtney Watson understands the unique obstacles faced by BIPOC, gender diverse, and Queer communities and the best methods for helping them heal from trauma. In this conversation, Courtney encourages us to learn about our roots, our current place in history, and how we can use this self awareness to support our own mental and emotional well being.
