Guest: Dr. Tracey Weise, ARPN, Clinical Director Identity Wellness in Anchorage, Alaska
Dr. Weise joins Auntie Vice to talk about what competent care for LGBTQ+ folks looks like in a medical setting. After working for six years as a forensics nurse, Tracey returned to school to get certified in mental health. She has a deep understanding of the how much trauma members of the LGBTQ+ community carry and how important it is to be competent when treating folks in this population. We chat what competence looks like (hint: it isn't just putting a rainbow flag sticker on your site), and what we should expect from healthcare providers.
She talks about Adverse Childhood Events, how they change the brain and body of everyone long term, what trauma-informed medicine looks like, and about starting Alaska's only gender and queer specific healthcare center. She is just awesome! Your should definitely listen.
