What does it mean to truly understand the 'why' behind substance use disorders? How does counter-transference play a role in supporting the LGBTQ+ community, especially amid religious trauma? These are just a few of the provocative questions we explore with our esteemed guest, Ashlee Lewis, a devoted mental health professional. We delve into Ashlee's transformative journey from working in substance abuse to specializing in LGBTQ support and perinatal mental health. Her personal experiences, combined with her professional practice, make for a compelling and enlightening conversation that underlines the importance of empathy, self-awareness, and the power of therapy.

Committing to therapy can be life-changing, and Ashlee is a testament to that. Her work at Empowering Therapy Charlotte uses innovative techniques to support her clients. From discussing her journey and how her parent's alcoholism has shaped her professional boundaries, to exploring the intersections of religious trauma and supporting the LGBTQ+ community, Ashlee provides us with a unique perspective on mental health. She also shares the power of online platforms, such as Instagram, in therapy and empowerment.
