Faith, Culture, and Mental Health - Part 1 || Christianity, Race, and Ethnicity Impact Mental Health

Dr. Atasha Jordan and therapist Katie Piura talk about the intersection of faith, culture, and mental health. Enjoy this fun discussion on how important it is to recognize how faith and culture impact an individual's perspectives about mental health.
Many Christians delay seeking help for mental illnesses, often thinking that they are suffering from spiritual distress. However, spiritual health and mental health are not the same. It is possible for Christians to be spiritually healthy and mentally ill.
Dr. Atasha Jordan is a psychiatry resident in Philadelphia, PA where she studies the intersection of Christianity and Mental Health. Dr. Jordan aims to help normalize conversations about mental health and mental illnesses within the Church.
