    Oh the Horror!

    Ever feel so crazy you just want to scream? Or how about watching other people scream, on screen? Or scream at people screaming in a wrestling ring? Well, tune in to this very special and scream-worthy episode of Psychic Rehab. I talk about the therapeutic value of watching horror and exploitation films with horror scholar and author Kier- la Jenisse as well as the merits of cheering and booing for faces and heels in professional wrestling matches with activist Carmela Prudencio and artist Eddy Miramontes. Therapy doesn’t always take place in an office. Join the conversation and help fight the stigma against mental illness, it’ll be a scream. Available at Strawhut media dot com, Apple podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods.

    Identity: Part 1

    This week on Psychic Rehab, join me, Rachel Michelle Fernandes, resident punk enthusiast, journalist, and mental health nerd, for a conversation about identity. I attend the iconic Riot Grrrl punk feminist band Bikini Kill’s recent reunion tour and hone in on feminism, what it’s meant to me, and how it definitely doesn’t mean the same thing to all women. I talk to a close friend who recently became a therapist in Los Angeles about her early relationship with feminism as well as her training in treating clients from different cultural backgrounds. I also catch up with a college friend who is doing groundbreaking work with men on how to be better allies to women and girls.
