“Race-Based Trauma: The Challenge and Promise of MDMA-Assisted Psychotherapy” Monnica Williams, Ph.D.
My guest on the show today is Dr. Monnica T. Williams, certified licensed clinical psychologist and Associate Professor at the School of Psychology at the University of Ottawa. Monnica is researching how PTSD symptoms can result from racism and what racial trauma and race-based trauma look like.
