Therapy for Black Girls

Session 306: Becoming A Therapist, Part II


Listen Later

The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.

We’ve had dozens of therapists on the podcast sharing their perspectives on various topics, from friendships to mediation and even horror movies. But have you ever wondered what it takes to become a licensed therapist? Well, the road isn’t paved in gold…more like a few years of school and thousands of hours of supervised practice. But don’t fret; this second installment of our Becoming A Therapist series is for our community members who are therapists, sisters looking to enter the field, and everyone in between. 

Joining me today are psychologists Dr. Kimberly Applewhite, based in Utah, and Dr. D’Andria Jackson based in Ohio.  My colleagues and I got candid about our journeys and talked all things personal development, business administration, insurance paneling, and more.
