Necessary Expressions: Allowing Black Pain Into Therapeutic Spaces
Welcome to the Chronicles of a Play Therapist Podcast. In this first episode, Althea Simpson, MBA, LCSW, RPT-S introduces play therapy – an approach in expressive therapy that holds incredible potential and practice-proven effectiveness in healing the generational trauma that besets the black community through their historical and contemporary experience of racial inequality and oppression. Black pain is real. To work with black clients in healing their trauma, mental health professionals have to acknowledge and give due consideration to that pain. Althea fully recognizes that fact and has created a community geared towards healing racial trauma. Through this podcast, Althea will walk you through this unique modality that will help you deal with these racial wounds and step forward from being hurt to being healed.
