#009 - Special guest, Dr. Riana Elyse Anderson, Assistant Professor in the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan, joins Dr. Terrance L. Green on the podcast. Professor Green and Dr. Anderson discuss mental health and trauma and specifically racial trauma. We also talk about how people working in schools might help youth process COVID-19. In doing so, Dr. Anderson shares some strategies on how to check in on your students daily to see how they are doing psychologically and emotionally. We finally talk about how to psychologically navigate being in a school district, school, or organization that is institutionally hypocritical, and we discuss so much more.
