This was not only helpful and engaging but also validating. I feel like therapy had to be more than COTW every single session, even if I didn't have a crisis. This has been my experience for 2yrs. I also didn't know you could have a consult to see if the therapist works well for you. My insurance told me they couldn't identify their providers by race, either. So this was very informative, and I appreciate the resources provided. I definitely took screenshots of them. Thank you @Amanda Seales TV and @Dr. Raquel Martin
Oh my goodness, I'm so glad Amanda noted how fast Dr. Martin was speaking. I was 8 minutes in and I had to change the playback speed and go back to the beginning.
Lies, I’m from NYC and I appreciate the rapid pace of speech. It keeps me engaged. I have received the slower pace of speech, largely incorrectly, as condescending. Something about the tempo allows me to absorb all of the details. The slower talk is chopped and screwed and words seem to get lost in the space in between.
First…. Ms. Amanda, I’m subscribing today to your patreon account😅. But concerning being diagnosed…. I straight up thought I was intellectually delayed as a child and because I was an avid reader, no one knew. I was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia in college. As confirming as the diagnosis were, I immediately fell into a depression. One professor picked up on one little change on how I preformed on an exam and sent me on a path that truly changed things for me. So the depression came from confirming that I had been invisible my entire childhood.
This was so helpful Dr. Martin, thank you for sharing with us. I have an upcoming session and whst i took away from this was have clear goals. And im the main character in my sessions, the therapist is being paid to listen to me not me asking abouy thier day etc....
I’ve had a lot of favorite episodes so far but I think this one is my most favorite! Lol i’ve been a school counselor for over 4 years and just stepped into a new role as a mental health manager for head start programs. This conversation is really making me want to go back to get my license! 🙏🏽🙌🏽 what an amazing wealth of knowledge you both are, God bless!❤
Yo I am a third year Phd counseling psych student. I NEEDED this!! This was so validating and a beautiful moment of representation for me. Lawd! 😫 But the real question i have now is, where are to safe apa internship sites? 👀
As someone who watches TH-cam on 1.5 playback speed, I _LOVE_ how fast she talks. 🤩 ..and I will be rewatching this with my mama. Thank you both so much for your time and dedication to our community. 💜
So Good! Thank you both for validating us! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I operate from the same lens and can relate to everything that was said! ❤
@@jihanwilliams3837 it is a method therapists use to help us reprocess trauma in a manner more conducive to our long term well being. They can do it with sound in both ears or a dot for your eyes do follow from side to side. I’m not sure why it works but after a year and a half I feel so differently about many things that I’ve experienced.
@@jihanwilliams3837 to add as much detail as possible, my therapist would periodically bring up situations We discussed the issues I brought up in our initial consultation and things that would come up especially if they were bothering me. We alternated between me looking at the dot move and her asking questions for about 10 minutes or so. Hope that helps.
Even if they are open or agree with you, you can’t be their Guinea pig for figuring out how to treat “that kind of client.” I can’t be the representative for all my categories. What I look like, a learning curve?
Check to see if your clinician is licensed. They can harm you. Know your why and your goals for therapy Interview the therapist. Dont settle on one until youve done your research. 1. How did you feel when you walked, logged in or out of the session? 2. Did time go by fast or slow? Fast means there was a level of comfort. Unless you felt rushed in some way. If clinician is caucasian: 1. What are your opinions regarding implications of racism on mental health? 2. Do you have difficulty discussing oppression? 3. Do you identify different levels of oppression? The structure of this question wasnt worded well Here is my thought on what she was saying you should ask Do you think people putting their privilege or racism on me has anything to do with the presenting symptoms I stated? The text she read from the therapist. That therapist sounds more like an agent/handler. Glad you got out of that space as you were not safe!
Thanks for this episode! I offer free consultations as well, it’s best for the potential clients and I do a vibe check to if we are a good fit! Good information 😊
Omg I’m pissed, I wish this existed when I was in trouble. I had no idea how to navigate the therapy/mental health thing. Everyone just said go! I didn’t know what to ask and I didn’t operate like a client🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ I didn’t know what to do with a consultation
I wouldn’t consider Jung a “colonizer creep” grouped in with the other guys. Jung’s true nature was hidden because of those aforementioned creeps. But much later after his death a lot of his work came to light such as The Red Book where he showed images from his dreams. The biggest thing missing from Western psychology is the concept of the soul and integrating it into personal experience. Jung’s work helped me to go deeper into my psyche to understand why I was triggered and then I was able to adjust in real time to lower anxiety. Or to go deeper and understand my soul urge and accept myself. Jung knew that western psychology was insufficient and he went to Africa and Asia to have different experiences.
Imagine 15:09 doing all that work to be licensed and some of these therapists are complete assholes and just say the most effed up stuff to people who are vulnerable and in need of help. Not all but its like damn.

As a mental health nurse, I love that you are discussing this topic. Quote " you deserve to go to therapy" is everything!!!
As a therapist I love offering Consultations and people should be comfortable asking ALL the questions during that time!
Me too! I love the questions
As a Black woman who is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a fan of both of you THANK YOU! This episode made my heart smile.
Black therapists are needed… we need someone to relate to us.
This is truly one of the best episodes.

I am currently looking for a therapist and the timing of the this episode is perfect and filled with great information.

😮 depression REALLY is environment specific!!🎯

Check to see if your clinician is licensed.
They can harm you.
Know your why and your goals for therapy
Interview the therapist.
Dont settle on one until youve done your research.
1. How did you feel when you walked, logged in or out of the session?
2. Did time go by fast or slow? Fast means there was a level of comfort. Unless you felt rushed in some way.
If clinician is caucasian:
1. What are your opinions regarding implications of racism on mental health?
2. Do you have difficulty discussing oppression?
3. Do you identify different levels of oppression?
The structure of this question wasnt worded well
Here is my thought on what she was saying you should ask
Do you think people putting their privilege or racism on me has anything to do with the presenting symptoms I stated?
The text she read from the therapist. That therapist sounds more like an agent/handler. Glad you got out of that space as you were not safe!
Thanks for this episode! I offer free consultations as well, it’s best for the potential clients and I do a vibe check to if we are a good fit! Good information 😊

Powerful, informative
This was excellent !
In the words of my therapist, you are the driver, they're the gps. They can guide you, but you are in control of the car(your life)
Love this
Everybody is not a narcissist. Everyone is also not an empath. Both overused.
I blame tiktok hahah
