In this episode, I speak with Thema Bradford about the intersection of Black mental health, autism, and the journey to decolonize therapy. Thema, a licensed mental health counselor and Reiki Master Teacher, shares her experience of entering the field at 45 and how her journey was inspired by her mother.
Thema shares the importance of finding community, embracing one's neurodivergence, and navigating societal systems rooted in patriarchy, white supremacy, and capitalism. Thema introduces her group "Late Pass," which offers a space for Black women discovering their neurodivergence later in life, and shares insights on how to find grace, empowerment, and healing along the way.
This episode is a powerful reminder that we are already whole and deserving of compassion.
