Dr. Kerry-Ann is the real deal!

Black Mental Health Matters is a terrific window into the challenges and opportunities associated with access to mental health for people of color. She's a practicing psychiatrist, working with kids with histories of trauma. But her range goes well beyond that. Her guests, who are most often Black professionals, have covered ground that includes the spiritual as well as the medical. I'm a white social worker (and a colleague of Dr. Kerry-Ann) and I find the lens and insight she brings to the work to be both informative and useful. Subscribe now!
