This week Jeremy reconnects with Kate Sayers, a therapist and owner of Safe Space MKE. They discuss Kate's recent certification with WPATH, an organization supporting transgender health, and the importance of advocacy in their profession. The conversation explores the challenges of navigating mental health as LGBTQ+ individuals and clinicians, especially amid political tensions affecting their community. They also reflect on balancing activism with personal well-being, social media's impact, and the significance of finding joy and community as forms of resistance.
You can find out more about Kate and her practice at Safe Space Therapies and on Instagram here.
Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube.

Podcasts about therapy do not replace actual therapy, and listening to a podcast about therapy does not signify a therapeutic relationship.
