Identity-based Privilege with April Grigsby, LCSW Self Studies

    • Mental Health

Privilege takes many forms and is determined and dictated by the community in which an individual finds themselves. The privilege one has at home may be different from the privilege they have at work. In both cases, identity-based privilege can shape an individual's mental health and sense of self. In this episode, Alma member April Grigsby, LCSW, speaks about defining and managing privilege, code-switching, and ways that therapists can better understand the many layers of identity that clients bring into the therapy space.
