Seeking a Therapist 101
from Cocoa Butter and Communion Hosted by Chioko Grevious
Hey Village! This episode, it is just me. :) A little bit about me, I am Chioko Juliette Grevious, Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, Associate Professional Clinical Counselor, and a registered Psychological Assistant, all in the state of California (west siiiiide). In addition to those things, I am also the owner of a therapy practice, Grounded Roots Therapy Collective, Inc. (website is under construction). From the beginning of my journey as a therapist, I have truly believed that it is important for therapy to be decolonized and destigmatized. The oppressive practices of therapy needs to be dismantled. I want to make sure that the information is out there to find the therapist that is meant for you. Our healing is a collective experience. When the community is healed, we are all healed. This episode gives some tips on how to interview a potential therapist and some things to know about the different theoretical orientations of therapy (styles of therapy). I currently finished "Great Expectations" by Vinson Cunningham (finished most of it while waiting in the lines at Disneyland) and I am listening to The Above the Rim soundtrack. Here are some directories to begin your search for a therapist: Therapy for Black Girls www.therapyforblackgirls.com TherapyDen www.therapyden.com Clinicians of Color www.cliniciansofcolor.org
