The Unorthodox Therapist Session 8: "George Floyd, I Never Met You, But I Love You"
The Unorthodox Therapist
06/01/20 • 55 min
The unjust murder of George Floyd is a shared collective trauma for the black community. His murder is highlighting countless of years of systemic oppression, racism, and police brutality.
In this episode I do my best to highlight how George Floyd's murder by the knee cap of a white on duty police officer is impacting our nation. There are two sides this episode. The black side, and the white side.
Race and identity intersect through all walks of life. Identity is how I see mental health. To stop end of pathology for the life experiences of black people, one must first understand the difference between anxiety, and managing how your identity intersects within you life and social connections.
Are you nervous because your identity could get you killed today?
It brings me joy to see people of color come in diagnosed with generalied anxiety, and leave being proud to be black and the "anxiety" symptoms related to being black, become a part of yourself. You learn how to not only be aware of your identity, but how to navigate difficult nd traumatic moments where your identity, and another person's interaction and perception of your identity, becomes the reason you could die.
George Floyd will forever be a beacon of hope for my mission to defeat the stigma of mental health. Grieving his loss with millions has brought me joy, being invalidated by people I love, haas brought me pain. Let me share with you all my personal and unorthodox perspective of why George Floyd is my brother, not by blood, but by breathe.
Disclaimer: This is a raw, very raw episode. I have been emotionally incapacitated since his loss and I do what I tell my clients. Be your true self. So don't mind the crying, lack of edits, and possible lack of structure. My grief at a this moment has no structure.

If you have found yourself fighting with your loved ones, family and friends during this time over absolute NONSENSE, you are in luck, I think we all are. In today's episode explore my concept of quarantine quarrels. It's an unorthodox way to reframe the fights and arguments triggered by Covid-19. Being stuck with yourself, your boyfriend, kids, and partner in isolation, 24/7, for extended periods of time impact our mental health and ability to manage our anger and frustration.
The power of normalization, identification of true feelings, and engaging in more creative ways to resolve fights and arguments. Sounds like a good time. Tune in!

The Unorthodox Therapist Session 11: The Intersection of Anxiety and Identity
The Unorthodox Therapist
08/20/20 • 23 min
Simply put this session opens up the space to begin exploring Generalized Anxiety Disorder beyond the DSM 5. My therapy is grounded in the soil of identity and learning more about how our true selves intersect within society, work, home, and our communities.
This is not the last session on anxiety. I hope this episode opens your minds to more than a book of symptoms. I hope you allow yourself to enter and into a world of culture.
