About this listen

Traditional therapy wasn’t enough to fix a broken system. Nearly 60% of BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals report feeling misunderstood or harmed in therapy. Clinicians are burning out. Marginalized communities are slipping through the cracks. That’s why Ashley Hampton left the comfort of private practice to launch a nonprofit rooted in healing justice because survival shouldn’t depend on privilege, and therapy shouldn’t be a luxury. In Part 3 of this series, Ashley Hampton and host Patrick Custer unpack the painful gaps in our current mental health system and what it actually takes to build something more inclusive, more human, and more effective. From system-level failures to clinician identity suppression, Ashley brings lived experience, bold truth, and practical strategies to the table. What we explore in Part 3: • Why private therapy alone can’t solve systemic harm • Real-world failures of the mental health system and how they harm BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities • What “healing justice” actually looks like beyond buzzwords • The emotional toll on therapists forced to mask their identities • How people outside the margins can become true co-conspirators without centering themselves Recorded and released during Pride Month, this conversation holds particular weight for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities, where survival often masquerades as strength, and healing rarely happens in systems that weren’t built for us. If you’ve ever felt like the system wasn’t made for you this is your mirror, your firestarter, and your roadmap forward. This is your mind. This is your moment. What will you do with it?
