- Episode 264 | Antiblackness in Mental Health with Dr. Mazella Fuller, PhD, MSW, LCSW, CEDS-C
In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Dr. Mazella Fuller, LCSW, clinical advisor to Eating Recovery Center, Duke-trained integrative health coach, clinical consultant for the International Association of Eating Disorders Professionals and social justice advocate. Dr. Fuller shares her lifelong journey with social justice and how it led her to the work she does today. We discuss racism and other "isms" when it comes to mental health care and disparities seen in mental health care and treatment because of these "isms". We spend some time discussing eating disorders in Black women and disparities these individuals face. Dr. Fuller discusses how clinicians can address racism in mental health systems and treatment and we broaden the discussion to patterns of anti-blackness across medicine, academia, and business. We discuss systems changes that need to be made if institutions are actually interested in diversity, equity and inclusion, as well as steps that can be taken to advocate for marginalize communities. We also discuss allyship in non-Black individuals.

In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Patricia Martin, cultural analyst, researcher, and speaking about how digital culture erodes our identity. We start the conversation by discussing Patricia's book Will the Future Like You? Reflection on the Age of Hyper-reinvention; what it is about and what inspired her to write it. We discuss how constantly being online erodes our identity and Patricia discusses three forces upending the development of identity - persona fog, chronic self-doubt, and cascading crossroads. We discuss the concept of hyper-reinvention and how it disconnects us from the core of who we are, in addition to how the cyber world leads to self-alienation. We end the discussion by Patricia sharing some of the things we can be doing to help ourselves identify who we really are in this digital culture.
