About this listen

Follow Yvonne Castañeda on her journey of recovery, rewriting the mental health narrative, and holding space for counselors and therapists who need support on this week's episode of "I Live This."

Yvonne is a licensed clinical social worker, part time faculty member and Director of Community-Based Initiatives at Boston College School of Social work, and author of “Pork Belly Tacos with a Side of Anxiety.” In this conversation, we discuss why there's no such thing as a perfect therapist, how to support mental health professionals, how to trust in your truth, and more from her novel and overall experiences.

Special thanks to MAMH intern and Master of Social Work candidate Alison Sabean for leading this enlightening conversation with Yvonne.
