Ep. 117: Repost: Mental health for Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities, healing generational trauma and internalized racism, and shooting your shot with Dr. Stephanie J. Wong (Licensed clinical psychologist and Founder of Color of Success)

13 Feb 2024

Description

  Happy Valentine's Day!  What better way to celebrate love than going to therapy to heal generational trauma?   In this episode with Dr. Stephanie J. Wong, we discuss:  - Why therapy is important, especially in Asian American Pacific Islander communities where it's often considered taboo. - How there's been an increased need for mental health support because of 45's presidency that has emboldened White Supremacists. - How generational trauma and internalized racism has impacted Asian American Pacific Islander communities, many of these were a direct result of the United State's involvement in war and colonialism.   - With the rise in Anti-Asian hate, what factors to consider for risk, cost, benefit analysis when making decisions, such as going to community events.   - How to make therapy more inclusive, especially when the industry is predominantly White, by using lived experiences and cultural humility, not just cultural competency. - The importance of being shameless about shooting your shot and letting go of the humble Asian mentality.   - What Dr. Stephanie did to connect with folks like Margaret Cho and the cast from the Partner Track and Bling Empire for her podcast, Color of Success.     Learn more about Dr. Stephanie J.
