About this listen
In this episode, we’re joined by Angela, a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Associate Counselor, for a meaningful conversation about maternal mental health, relationships, and therapy through a multicultural lens.
Angela shares her journey into the mental health field, her passion for working with couples and families, and her current training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy. We discuss the unique challenges parents of color face during pregnancy and postpartum, how cultural expectations and stigma impact mental health, and ways partners and families can offer better support.
The conversation also explores what helps couples feel “unstuck,” how relationships can stay strong through parenthood, and how Angela’s own experience as a mother shapes her work as a therapist. We wrap up with reflections on balance, self-care, and a fun personal note—including how Angela became fluent in Italian.
