Episode Synopsis

Welcome to the Therapists Unmasked, where we discuss the mental health struggles that therapists face behind closed doors. As professionals we are taught to put our emotions aside to help our clients with their own emotional battles. Not only is our goal to help normalize therapists mental health, but to also help other people get their stories across. In doing so, we will use our counseling knowledge to have therapeutic conversations with our guests in which they talk about their fears, traumas, and other heavy mental health topics. Meet Karen Reyes, a compassionate therapist who grew up facing financial hardship but overcame the odds to pursue her passion for helping others. She opens up about how the uncertainty surrounding immigration laws impact work and how deeply she resonates with the struggles, as she has family members who are immigrants themselves. Throughout the conversation, Karen explores how therapy can be a powerful tool for healing, offering hope and strength even in the face of adversity So, grab a drink or snack and join us on our journey where we unmask the hardships that people just like you face, whether you are a mental health therapist or a listener, and learn how to cope with these issues.
