  1. 18- Culturally Safe Mental Health Care

    FEB 9

    18- Culturally Safe Mental Health Care

    In this episode of Black Mentality, we dive into culturally safe mental health care, why therapy is not just for people in crisis, and what it truly means for Black and African communities to feel safe in therapeutic spaces. Heather (founder of Sokotherapy) unpacks the impact of code-switching in therapy, why clients shouldn’t have to teach their therapists about their culture, and how emotional safety is foundational to healing. We explore common myths about therapy, confidentiality concerns, migration trauma, and the importance of culturally informed care for Black and African Australians. This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply reflective—highlighting why mental health support must be accessible, culturally responsive, and grounded in dignity, safety, and understanding.

    17- Storytelling for healing

    This conversation with Kholi is an intimate, layered reflection on storytelling, migration, identity, privilege, healing, and why context matters.     From family histories and boarding school experiences to libraries as refuge, therapy as a tool for unlearning, and the need for Black-led cultural institutions, this episode explores how stories help us understand ourselves and each other beyond headlines and stereotypes.     We talk about diaspora, home, propaganda-lite education, creativity as healing, and what it means to share your story without letting trauma define you.
