Ep.16 Does Emotion Mean Weakness? A Black Man's Perspective!

Oct 12, 2017

​

Talking Off The Couch podcast focuses on mental health and mental wellness within the community of color. Tatiana Smith who is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Dallas, Texas decided that it is time to shed light and break stigmas about mental health/wellness in the communities of color. This podcast is a voice for the mental health community as well as the average person. Talking Off The Couch will make you feel Ok about not being Ok.

 

This week's episode I speak with Rwenshaun Miller, M. A., LPCA. We talk about how he got into the mental health field, why the representation of black Men in the field is so low, personal mental illness and suicide, The importance for black men to have an outlet and to understand that emotion is not weakness, and the importance of self-care.
