Cultivating a private practice as a black therapist.
Host: Montoyia McGowan, LCSW Memphis, TN, and in the tristate area www.stoppingthechase.com Guest: Dr. NaRicia Futrell (DSW, LCSW), full-time licensed clinical social worker in the states of Tennessee, Arkansas, and Texas. Owner and director of: Gihon Counseling Solutions, Inc. 4646 Poplar Ave. Suite 325 Memphis, TN 38117 (901) 209-5381 Website: https://www.gihoncounselingsolutions.com/chiropractic Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@yofavoriteslightlyhoodther9623 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/gihoncounseling Instagram: @GihonCounseling Psychology Today: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists/naricia-futrell-memphis-tn/240751 Introduction Welcome to the Bougie Black Therapists Podcast where we give licensed clinicians permission to be bold, be authentic, competent, and true to themselves while in private practice. In today’s Bougie Episode, we discuss the topic of cultivating a private practice as a Black therapist with Montoyia McGowan and guest Dr. NaRicia Futrell, two of the top Black therapists in the field. Therapy is becoming something more people of color want to invest in; however it's challenging to find someone that people of color can relate to. 80% of the therapeutic process is dependent upon how comfortable the client feels around the therapist. The remaining 20% is what was taught in school. “Therapist Statistics & Facts: How Many are There in 2022?”, Zauderer, Steven, November 13, 2022, https://www.crossrivertherapy.com/. Topics: Representation in Psychotherapy Time Management Agency vs. Private Practice Sharing Personal Experiences with Clients Setting Boundaries as a Therapist Self-Care Practices Exchange of Energy Brainspotting Conclusion: Some therapists choose not to share their personal experiences during sessions, while others may share their perspective with a client on what a more healed version of them could possibly look like. There is no set way to help clients figure out life blueprints work for them but being human during sessions allows a healthy exchange of energy that helps clients of color relate to therapists of color in a beneficial way.

Healing through Art. How Art can help you heal faster from Heartache.
Guest Tammy Groves-Thornton, owner, and founder of TGT Art, a boutique Art Studio that caters to Art Design, Photography, and Paint Parties. Facebook: Tammy Groves Thornton Instagram: @IamTGTArt Host a Paint Party or book Private Sessions: TGT Art Parties on Facebook Introduction Are you somewhere in the grieving process after the loss of a relationship, loved one, friendship, or perhaps a job? Feeling like you’re never going to get your mojo back? In this Episode of The Bougie Black Therapist Podcast, Guest Tammy Groves Thornton joins the conversation to discuss how art can speed up the healing process after heartache. A recent study indicated there was a 71% decrease in feelings of anxiety and 73% decrease in feelings of depression for evaluated art participants. Stopping the Chase helps clients who struggle with depression and anxiety understand that these issues are caused by a disconnect between the body and the brain because the brain can go forward, backward, and present, but our bodies can only do one. When there's a disconnect between our thoughts and our feelings, it can throw us into a state of turmoil on a regular basis. Topics Definition of Depression Definition of Anxiety Art Can Help with Depression and Anxiety Art Can Help People Reconnect with Joy Art Can Help When Dealing with Matters of the Heart Art is Healing and Healing is a Process Sometimes Painful Experiences are Necessary to the Healing Process Start Off Small and Make Time for Creativity Conclusion The process of creating connects us to what is divine in us. It is a special connection we have to The Creator because The Creator created us. Our thoughts are energy, and energy never dies, so it’s important that we give our thoughts a place to go to keep them from ruminating and getting stuck in the vibration of us. Art is an excellent way to heal and give our thoughts energy.
