The climate crisis is not just about the weather, it is about us. Humans: Our minds, our bodies, our health, and our relationships with each other and the world around us. We humans, in turn, shape the climate crisis with our responses, actions, and behaviors.
This podcast captures the heart of what’s emerging in the fields of climate psychology and climate mental health care.

When a climate disaster hits, how does it impact mental health care?
In this episode, I speak with Holly Walters, a licensed professional counselor and Louisianan who has survived multiple major hurricanes. In Hurricane Ida, Holly lost her house. Then she went right back to providing mental health care to her storm-ravaged community.
What's it been like for Holly and her clients? And what has she learned from the experience that can help clinicians in other climate disasters in the future?
