Las Doctoras
Although fairly new, this podcast is definitely worth mentioning thanks to the host's frank conversations surrounding race, gender, sexuality, and reproductive justice. Renee Lemus and Cristina Rose are both professors in Women, Gender, and Sexuality studies at different Cal State Universities, and both have their PhDs. In other words? They are seriously knowledgeable. Catch recent episodes on colorism and parenting as well as spirituality and social justice.
Latinx Therapy
Hosted by Adriana Alejandre, LMFT, this podcast is all about learning self-help techniques and creating a safe space for Latino people to talk about their mental health. Tune in to the recent episode on combining God and therapy, as well as others on topics ranging from body positivity to coming out of the closet in machismo culture.
Therapy For Black Girls
Therapy for Black Girls is an online space dedicated to encouraging the mental wellness of Black women and girls. So often the stigma surrounding mental health issues and therapy prevent Black women from taking the step of seeing a therapist. I developed the space to present mental health topics in a way that feels more accessible and relevant.
