Ep 706: Fatphobia & Mental Health

  • Summary

  • Is my therapist mad at me for being fat? Why does my therapist want to know my BMI? Does being fat affect how people treat me? Does being fat make me mentally ill? Is my therapist prejudiced against fat people? Should my therapist give me diet and exercise tips? Why do I feel so guilty after seeing my therapist? Is my therapist judging my obesity? Is it worth taking a psychiatric medicine if it makes me fat? I am a mental health clinician, how can I help my patients who are fat? I am a therapist how can I support my clients in dismantling oppressive systems? How can a therapist help me be confident in my fat body? How can I find a therapist who isn't fat phobic?

    Guru Shabd, LMFT and Tresla, Advocate and Public Speaker get into this with collected peer reviewed journal research and even more passion than before.
