Sabeen Shaiq

For far too long, there has been a stigma associated with the need to seek treatment from a mental health therapist. This is especially true for communities of color.

However, the shame bestowed upon someone seeking help to get or remain healthy, mentally is shifting. There are communities that have yet to reap the full benefit of accessibility, lending to a positive experience. There too are people fighting the good fight to make a difference.

Enter: Sabeen Shaiq, LCSW.

In this episode, Sabeen talks about the work she’s doing to help bridge the gap for misunderstood or underserved.
