Substance Abuse in the Latinx Community

Season 3 will be dedicated to Children's Mental Health topics. Please note that I recorded many of these interviews in 2018 but just was not been able to edit and release them due to many schedule changes I had in my life in 2019. The reason why I had thought of having a whole season on children mental health is truly because there’s a child in all of us, so even if you are not a parent or caregiver, this is for anyone who grew up as a child in the Latinx culture.  In this trailer, I give a few updates with Latinx Therapy including We opened a wellness center in Burbank, CA and are renting office spaces & have a group/training room for events (fits 30 people). We are also renting our podcast studio for $12/hr. calendly.com/latinxtherapy Latinx Therapy is launching a speaker directory so organizations can find a Latinx mental health professional for workshops, panels, keynotes & more. Check us out on our site!  Our Therapist-Directory is growing! Find your Latinx Therapist on www.latinxtherapy.com/therapists If you need to use your insurance, check out our Resources tab & select "Non-Profits" then filter by state and "mental health." Sponsorships/ad spots on the podcast for Latinx small business owners, fill out if interested in 15-second pre-roll ads: https://forms.gle/rQgN4a5hHoGZsiQQ6 I will be posting my events and upcoming speaking engagements on my homepage of our website, and on my Facebook, Instagram & Twitter. Follow us: @latinxtherapy  Thank you for all your support! Next episode is set to release on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week!
