18. Honoring Juneteenth, Black Liberation & Rest as an Act of Revolution: An Interview with Psychotherapist, Nicole Jackson

In episode 18, I sit down with psychotherapist, Nicole Jackson and discuss self-care and rest as an act of revolution and an intervention in the Black and African American Community. Nicole shares her wisdom, expertise about Black joy, Black rest, and Black healing on this day of Juneteenth, which is a world wide celebration of ending slavery in America. Grab a pen, some tea and curl up to tune in. I know you'll enjoy this episode!

She is a licensed clinical social worker for the states of Georgia & California providing trauma-informed counseling/coaching, workshops & training on issues of diversity, equity, & inclusion.  

Nicole earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of Baltimore and a Master’s of Clinical Social Work degree from the University of Maryland. She went on to receive extensive evidence-based training in complex trauma, adolescent care, and family work from the Seneca Institute for Advanced Practice in Northern California. Nicole has widespread experience working with diverse populations in an array of treatment settings.

She says her work is to transform the debilitating effects of multigenerational and cultural trauma into healing, living authentically, and strengthened families and communities. True power lies in relationship, being seen and feeling values. "This is my work."
