Justice and liberation in the therapy room | Dr. Eleonora Bartoli Psych Mic

    • Social Sciences

Eleonora Bartoli, Ph.D is a therapist who provides counseling and consulting services with expertise in trauma, resilience, and multicultural/social justice issues. Eleonora grew up in Italy and later received her bachelor's in psychology and philosophy at Brandeis University, and her Ph.D in Psychology: Human Development and Mental Health Research at the University of Chicago. On her website, she writes "I began my undergraduate career equally passionate in philosophy and psychology; what ultimately steered me towards clinical training was my passion for action and change, and not simply understanding. This deep desire to make a difference in others’ lives led directly to my commitment to social justice work, as it became clear that too often mental health concerns are triggered by social inequalities and injustice."

In this episode, we cover Eleonora's love for teaching, research, and clinical work, her "aha" moments along the way, why a Ph.D was the right degree for her, how she works towards anti-racism as a white clinician, practical tips for choosing graduate school, and much more.
