Vermont Biz After nearly two centuries as a nonprofit psychiatric hospital, the Brattleboro Retreat is the latest educational outreach initiative. Clarification A podcast hosted by therapist Kurt White and journalist Mary Wilson. Clarification It aims to enrich the conversation around mental health by delving into complexities that are often overlooked and offering a more nuanced perspective than is typically found in public discussion.
Biweekly episodes Clarification It explores complex mental health topics, starting with two episodes on the mental health needs of the transgender community. Clarification Insights will be presented from both experts and people with lived experience. Our inaugural guests will be Dr. Carl Jeffries, Chief Medical Officer at The Retreat, who has personal and professional experience as an advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community, and Dallas Duker, a prominent leader in transgender medicine and a transgender woman herself.
Whether you are trying to understand the world or just parts of it in your head; Clarification It is here to help you develop a more compassionate and informed perspective on life.
Clarification It will be streamed on the Brattleboro Retreat website and on all major podcast platforms.
